Changing back to GMT shows posting times labelled (GMT -6) but only actually five hours behind.) Changing my time zone results in posting times being displayed with the GMT offset for that zone, but an hour later than what they should be. : Editing times appear to be an hour ahead of posting times in these fora! (Edit: There's a fault in the Control Panel. If the pulse is dotted minims, the ideal is a quaver rest, two crotchet rests, and a dotted minim rest.

Dotted minim rest full#
Bar two needed a crotchet rest for the first beat and a quaver rest was used in the final bar to make up a full crotchet beat. Remember in 4/4 time a completely silient half bar at the beginning or end of the bar is shown with a minim rest not two crotchet rests. Is there a way to make Finale change the rests into larger rests? Perhaps I'll have to go in and manually make the consecutive crotchet rests into dotted minim rests where needed.Īlso: in 6/4 if I just have an 8th note on the first beat of the bar, the remaining rests should be an 8th rest, a minim rest and a dotted minim rest, correct? The minim rest is used in bar one to complete the missing two crotchet beats. Hi all, I've written some music in 6/4 and Finale has tended to make consecutive crotchet rests instead of dotted minim rests. The dot extends the value of rest by 50 percent. Although dotted rest is less commonly used than with notes, except occasionally in modern music notated in compound meters such as 6/8 or 12/8.
