I'm a Sibelius user, I've subscribed to this list for curiosity about Finale. In House Style Engraving Rules... Beams and Stems there are options to change beam angles, screen shot attached for Sibelius 4, there have been no changes to this section in Sibelius 5. Without a plug-in, your best bet

It will certainly help, but it's not all that is required for Henle style beams. Andrew Well, what happens if you tick the Avoid simple wedges box? Doesn't that help give Henle-like results? Dennis ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu

No. I mean, I guess it helps a little (I haven't tried it with Avoid simple wedges off), but the results are in no way comparable to the results you get using the Henle-like settings in Patterson Beams. - Darcy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brooklyn, NY On 28 Feb 2008, at 5:05 AM, dc wrote:

Hi Chris, Hiro, There's a actually a much better way to get repeats on some staves but not others -- create the repeat as usual, and then hide the repeat on selected staves as needed using a Staff Style. - Darcy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brooklyn, NY On 28 Feb 2008, at 7:02 AM,

Hi Hiro, That's very weird -- I have not seen that behavior before. I suppose if you can't find any other way around it you could fake the missing barline with a shape expression line. Cheers, - Darcy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brooklyn, NY On 28 Feb 2008, at 1:04 PM, A-NO-NE Music wrote:
