I am new to Dorico. I have always used Finale. I don’t know where to select in Dorico so that the notes with the high and low octave stay in the same range. Does Dorico raise or lower the grades as the graph shows?
Dorico treats 8va signs as a clef. One enters the notes at pitch and then applies the 8va sign & bracket to change how Dorico represents those pitches. The 8va sign does not transpose the pitch.

Don’t assume that Dorico will do things in the same way as Finale! It’s really important to watch some of the videos, to get a feel for the way that Dorico works.
