Title: Looks as if the notes were double-dotted...
Post by: Peppermint Lin on 2010-04-17 03:04 PM
I have been writing down a sheet of song, and while editing the 8th notes looked as if they were double dotted.
The notes are one dotted.
If I set dotted note to Stem=0, it becomes like this.

G'day Yoon-ei Kim,
are you referring to the spacing of the dots?  If so, the dots are moving away from the notes to allow for the flag.  You will see it if you over ride the stem length ans set it to 6 or less.

If the spacing on the 0 length stem is a problem, make the notes stem down.  This moves the flag to below the noteheat with the stem on the left thus stopping it from affecting the dot placement.

Wow. Really thx, Lawrie.

I had to solve it by this:
Quote
!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.0,Single)
|Chord|Dur:8th|Pos:-6,1|Opts:StemLength=0
|Rest|Dur:16th|Visibility:Never
|Clef|Type:Bass
|Chord|Dur:16th|Pos:-8,-1|Opts:StemLength=0
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End

But thanks to you, I could solve the preblem.
I really appreciate your advice.

A bug, IMO. If StemLength=0, there is no flag to avoid.
Also, one ought to be able to beam across a Clef (https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=6838.msg46911#msg46911).

Yoon-ei Kim, you are most welcome.

Rick, I concur, on both counts.
