I'm working with a piece that uses lombard rhythms (32nd + dotted 16th). The beam of the second 32nd note points back to the first 16th, how do I make it point forward to the second?

In the attached image, the top picture is the way Sibelius beams the group when I set the third note as the middle of a beam, and the bottom shows the manuscript notation I'm trying to capture.

Figured it out: select 32nd beam, pull up inspector, check "flip fractional beam"

Thanks for posting an answer.

There are lots of hidden treasures in the Inspector. I use it mainly to define a "hold."
