Hello,
I would like to add a black line to a note to indicate how long the sound is supposed to last,
please see the attached file.
Is there a way to do this in finale?
All the best
Frank

One way might be to use a custom Smart Line with your choice of line thickness. Once the line is ‘designed’ and selected, double click and drag for the desired length &c.

By The Way:
You can change Measurement Units “on the fly” by typing letters after the numeric value.
In the attached example I have entered a value of 3 Points (probably close to the actual thickness you need, I guess).
Survey:
e for EVPUs (or evpus, or EVPUs)
pt for points (or pts, or points) 1pt = 4e
s for spaces (or sp, or spaces) 1s = 6pt
p for picas (or pi, or picas) 1p = 2s
i for inches (or ", or in, or inch, or inches) 1i = 6p
c for centimeters (or cm, or centimeters)
m for millimeters (or mm, or millimeters)
By typing letters in this way you are overriding your global choice of Measurement Units only for this single instance.
