I haven't seen Note Worthy. The problem is that there is no 16th note head, as it has been replaced by a half note, with tail down. I can replicate this in Finale, I think, by putting in the initial 16th note, then hiding its head, and ensuring that the half note is in exactly the right position. But this would be a rather clumsy way to do it.Notturno wrote:I've always written in Note Worthy Composer.
Thanks Notturno. Good idea. I'll download the trial version and see how it goes.Notturno wrote: On the web site you can download a trial version.
Yes, you can get the half-note as a second layer, with its tail down, but the problem is to connect to the set of 16th notes, as in the graphic. Sure, you can put in a "dummy" 16th note as the first note of the set in that low A position, but if you position the half-note, which has white space inside, over the top of the dummy note, the black 16th note shows through and fills the head in black, so the base note then looks like a quarter note. Bottom line is you don't see a half note for A, you see a black quarter note.Tarbaby wrote:In Finale, you can do that by using the "Layers" option for different voices.
HI again Notturno. I did as you suggested and downloaded the trial version of NoteWorthy. It has some nice features. But I still can't see how to get the effect shown in the graphic. If I set up the 16th notes with a "dummy" low A as the first note, then put the bottom A as a half-note in its own staff layer, when I combine the layers into one staff the positions and tails are fine, but the white space of the half-note gets filled in by the black quarter-note underneath, so that it no longer looks like a half-note, but a quarter-note.Notturno wrote:In Note Worthy was that very simple..
There's no need for a jpg, as there doesn't appear to be a graphics option. Just attach the noteworthy file using "upload attachment" at the bottom of the text window, and I'll be able to open it in my trial version of the software.Notturno wrote:Hmm I don't know how to make a jpg in this software to upload it here...

Thanks for sending me the NoteWorthy version of the measure. It looks like this: I can do this in Finale too, without a problem. But it's not quite right, because it seems to show that the four 16th notes should be played, whereas, in fact, only the thumb should be striking the first note. The half-note should be over the top of the first 16th note. Have a look at the Finale version I put in the scores at viewtopic.php?f=12&t=26827 to see the required appearance.Notturno wrote: In Note Worthy was that very simple.
