You can remove stemlets from rests in beam groups individually, independently of your default setting for showing stemlets in the current flow.

Prerequisite

If you are in Engrave mode, Graphic Editing Graphic Editing button is selected in the Engrave toolbox.

Procedure

  1. Select at least one note in each of the beam groups from which you want to remove stemlets on rests. You can do this in Write mode and Engrave mode.
  2. Choose Edit > Notations > Beaming > Stemlets > Suppress Stemlet Beam. You can also choose this option from the context menu.

Result

Stemlets are removed from all rests in the selected beams. Explicit rests within the beamed group remain explicit.

Note
  • Removing stemlets from beams does not reset the selected beams to your default beam grouping for the flow.

  • You can choose not to show stemlets on rests in all beam groups in each flow on the Beam Grouping page in Notation Options.
