Utilities/Stem Direction/Down

Finale normally decides whether a note's stem should go up or down depending on its vertical position in the staff. If you've specified a multiple-voice arrangement - for example, upper voice = stems up, lower voice = stems down - using the Layer Options command (Document menu), Finale again chooses stem directions automatically. You can manually flip a region of stem down, though, by choosing Down.
