Ties in 2nd endings

Any updates on this as of July 2024?

Nope.

I expect, when there is an update, either the Development Team or interested users will make sure folks know.

Just chiming in here - please let users “insert end tie” or create some other way to do this very basic thing asap - thank you!

Hello Susan, and welcome to the forum!
There is already another way to do this thing: by using l.v. ties and adjusting them in Edit Mode.
At some point in the future there will be probably a built in clever “Dorico” solution to handle these situations.
ps.: as I am not an English mother tongue speaker, what does asap mean?

“As Soon As Possible”

Thanks Derrek, that makes sense.
asap, please vs. asap, thanks seems to have quite a different meaning, I feel. Both seem polite, one of it is polite.
At first it reminded me of Aesop, a Greek storyteller. An Australian company uses it as brand name for skin care products.

I think many people have a list of things they are really hoping for in Dorico 6 - I certainly do - but my expectations are tempered by the knowledge that everybody’s list is different!

Hi @Susan_Capestro and from me also: welcome to the Forum.

In case you don’t know, the mentioned (by @k_b ) l.v. tie, is to find on the manual, that you can reach with the link below :slight_smile: :

Please don’t get addicted to asap. Its use is most often passive-aggressive.

(Sorry for that, I edited my post.)

Sorry about the asap! No offense intended, I was just chiming in, having used Dorico for quite a few releases, always creating l.v. ties and adjusting them, just hoping for a quicker way. Thanks!

I did it in Finale by using slur and editing after. Can it work im Dorico, too?

The laissez vibrer tie is the thing to use. Dorico won’t slur to nothing, or to a rest.
