Hide or Remove 'Default' Whole Rests in "Unused" M
Posted: Mon Apr 19, 2004 6:14 pm
Greetings all:
I'm notating my first Finale project. This is a piano piece where I'm using cross staff beaming for about two thirds of the piece. I've got that working fine but Finale continues to place whole rests in the bass clef, where I've moved notes that are beamed to notes in the treble clef.
I tried hiding the rests but couldn't get it to work, they still printed.
I've heard of a feature to turn off default rests but I can't find it in the tutorial book index or the manual index, nor by scanning through the pulldown menus.
I'm assuming this is what I want to do to get rid of the rests. Is there another way? I've also heard of a way to tell Finale not to make sure there are the right number of notes/rests in a measure. Is that what I want?
I promise to faithfully go through all the tutorials as soon as I can if you'll answer this one question!!
Thanks everyone!
Earl
