Hello,

There is a tiny square box under the dotted eighth rest and it appears when the music is printed. I can't figure out what it is. Thanks for any help.

You have attached a graphic.

We can help you better if you attach the actual Finale document (or just a small version of the document).

With only a graphic to look at we can only guess.

But here is an idea:
Selection Tool.
Double-click the “tiny square box”.
Finale will switch to the tool that created the “tiny square box”, and select the “tiny square box” - so that you can delete it.
