Option/= in speedy does nothing. I searched for posts about this and got nothing. I put the Speedy cursor on the note in the 2nd ending, press opt/=, it used to work-what's up?

By "used to work", do you mean yesterday, but today it doesn't? If that is the case, there may be somethng else up in your file.

It works for me in 2011. What are you using?

By "reverse" do you mean flip, or tie to previous?

Tie/untie to next note
= (equals) or T

Tie/untie to previous note
option = (equals) or shift-T

Flip a tie
Command-F

The tie to previous note (where there is no actual note to tie back to in the previous measure) should only show in 2 situations: first note of a second ending (must follow a tie repeat barline), and the first measure of a system (for use as the first bar of a coda). This is by design.

Jim: if there is no repeat sign in the measure before the second ending, that might be the issue.

Zuill

P.S.: There are situations (as in an ending following a "skip ahead" command), that won't have an actual repeat sign, but you still might need the backwards tie. There is a trick: put the repeat sign there (this then shows the tie) and then create a staff style to hide the repeat. Works like a charm, and should playback correctly (no guarantees here).

It's the first note of a 2nd ending that need s a reverse tie to the last note before the first ending, which ties into the 1st ending. Repeat signs are in place. Doesn't work in scroll or page. 2010b. Thanks, sorry.

Try ctrl-click on the measure while in Speedy. Does it indicate Tie End? If not, try clicking that and see what happens.

Nothing happens. Once again, I'm in over my head! Thanks, I'll just write it out without the endings.

Sorry, I deleted the first ending and replaced it with what turned out to be a Back Ending. I wanted the lines to connect on the first ending brackets, and when I dragged it over, it never really lined up. So I deleted that ending, replaced it with an actual 1st ending, and it worked, except for one backwards tie that insisted on tieing to the last note in the first ending. I edited it with Special Tools, and it finally worked out ok.
