What is the best way to input
The only way I found was
but it seem unnecessarily advanced.
I tried with the C in voice 1 (and removed rest in voice 2) but then the tie would not stop.
Any suggestions? TIA.
You can enter the first G and C in upstem voice1 and the second two Cs in downstem voice 1. Then select both the lower voice Cs (which are in different voices) and hit T to tie them.
Thank you. I did not know of the âselect 2 notesâ, but just pressed T (and hoped for the bestâŚ)
We do try to help (see the options in step 1)

I tried the suggested method (selecting 2 notes of the same pitch) for
but it will not tie as below
Any suggestion? TIA.
It did not solve the tie, Iâm still unable to tie the Gs.
Select the half note, Command-click the destination note, hit T.
Exactly what I did (and do), and nothing happens.
I will post you the Dorico file in âDMâ
In Write mode, choose the stem of the half note. The CTRL/CMD+Click the tie ending note and press T.
By the way, when you write the passage tied this way, you do not want the second G eighth note to sound, right?
Selecting stem = selecting note? When I click the stem the entire note is selected and CMD-click the G and then T results in no tie.
(Iâm copying an old score so I donât know what the composer intended. Notes side by side might be more clear, but Iâm open for suggestions on a more modern style.)
You canât tie a note to another note that starts midway through the first note. It doesnât make any sense to Dorico and it really doesnât make a great deal of sense to a human being. You could select the stem of the first triplet G (to explicitly select the triplet G rather than the half note G that is at the same position) then hit T to tie it. Youâd then probably need to switch to Engrave mode to grab just the tie and hit F to flip it.
Excellent. That is probably what they had in mind;
Not sure how to interpret it, as you write, but, at least it is a verbatim reproduction of the old score (minus the overlap).
See Danielâs instructions on how to fix the overlap, posted a few hours ago further up the thread.
Yes, I tried it. It works fine. The editor will need to decide which representation to use, and what any tie would mean.
