it's possible to create a double stem (up and down) in the same note (and voice) without writing in different voices?
Thanks.

1. Select the passage.
2. Press
1 to make each note a unison
3. Use the shortcut
Ctrl+Alt+2 or Mac equivalent to select the 'lower' note
4. Press
Alt+2 to make the 'lower' notes into Voice 2

Thanks so much Sebasian but there is no other way without "moving" from voice one?

No sensible way I know of. Your example shows two parts, so you can either write them with one stem in one voice or with two stems, using two voices.
Is there some problem with doing it the way I described?

No Sebasian, no problem at all
. I'm a ex-Finale user and with that program you can make it just with one click (instead of creating two voices). I was just wondering if it was a "quicker" solution, but your way works very well.
Thanks again
