Dorico Support: Is there a difference between a "post" and a "message"?

I created a topic last week and I thought it was a post but it registered as a message. No one has responded to my question. And it does not appear when I click on “My Posts”.

Dorico 6.2 playback keeps playing notes/beats that have been deleted. How to fix? - Steinberg Forums

Any response would be welcome.

Your link is listed as “private or missing.”

If your extra notes were in added staves, you must (re-add the staves and) erase the notes that were in the added staves, not just delete the staves.

Derrick:

The score is in 4 staves throughout. I simply erased a beat --from a 3/4 measure to a 2/4 measure (as in the images shown), before the downbeat of the following measure. The playback machine still wants to play the missing (silent) beat before it plays the notes of the next bar. So it throws off the timing. Is there any way to tell it not to do this?

Your earlier post is not visible, nor are your images. Can you add your images here? Or upload the file itself?

Here ya go! I removed the quarter rest from the 3/4 bar and made it into a 2/4 bar. But the playback still reads the missing quarter rest.

How did you achieve this? It looks as though you added a 3/4 time signature after the bar and then used “Remove Rests” on the quarter‑rest.
If you select the eighth‑rest, is “End voice immediately” enabled in the Properties panel? If it is, disable it. Then select the quarter‑rest, press Shift+B, and type “‑1q”.

Yes, you sent it as a private message to a group of 7 forum users, including me.

I’m currently between a choir tour and a family holiday, so you’ll forgive me for not replying.

Like @LAE , I think you used the Remove Rest option, but that only removes the rest, not the beat. Put the caret immediately after the eighth rest and type SHIFT + B then -1q to change the number of beats in the measure from 3 to 2.
