I would like to differentiate 2 groups of 16ths .
Both of them must haVE double beam as they are 16ths.
But how could I show ONLY 1 BEAM from the note n. 3 to the n. 4?

n the example: Clarinets: D-G-B 1 beam with D-G-B

I appreciate your help

I'm not sure what you want. You only want one beam between the clarinet's red B and red D? But that would make the high red D an eighth note.

Here are two other possibilities (it's customary to use two sixteenth rests rather than an eight rest in this situation).

(Also, you don't want to slur between two parts. Give each part its own slur.)

Put the cursor on the 4th note in Simple or Speedy entry and press /

Make sure you're in the right layer.
