With the special dorico concept of played vs notated notes it would be really practical to be able to tie the last untied note back into the tied notes.
Like that you can stop the tying, have your dotted note (for example) and tie it back.
The ‘lock duration’ works only in
“Specify accidental, rhythm dot and articulations: BEFORE inputting note” mode.
But I find it impossible to never do an error, so I need to be in
“Specify accidental, rhythm dot and articulations: AFTER inputting note” mode.
And there we loose the dot when in ‘lock duration’…
Do you mean something like this:
?
hello !
no, more like something like this :
if you need a dotted 1/4 here you can’t bind it, it will turn into another grouping. but if I put the last note without bind, and then in this situation back-bind this last note into the others :
that would be good.

So the function you are wishing for would have to force duration on the previous (unselected) note before adding a tie.
I’m guessing they are not likely to want to do this. So many things in Dorico operate in the forward direction. When you see you need these note values and not a half note, force duration first, during entry.
well, I would like to go from the still selected note backwards to the other notes.
it is possible to put this dotted 1/4 if you put the dot first and then the duration.
actually it should do the same when you put the accidental and dot after the duration, but it doesn’t.
for me that is breaking the logic they have with lock duration
