I am working in a 12/8 time signature and whenever I insert an octave note, an octave rest, and another octave note, Finale automatically extends the beam from the first note to the last, passing over the rest.
I want to deselect this behaviour, keeping at the same time the default beaming of three octave notes together. So I don't think that changing the time signature would be the right way.
I'm using Finale 2014.5 and also, I know that I would break a beam by pressing the /
key, but since I have an Italian keyboard, it doesn't work.
