Hello,

I've done a search but can not find the answer to this.

Is it possible to remove the stem from a note but also add the note name?

If I am working with stemless notes then add note names the stem reappears.

Thanks in advance.

You could add the note names and then 'remove' the stems by dragging them down in the note body. Tails and beams can be hidden, and the stem dragged. They'll show on the screen but won't print. Sorry, all a bit manual and tedious, and I can't find any plug-ins or engraving rules that would help out.
