Tablature / "Stems and beams" not working right?
In "Staff/Part Properties | Advanced Style Properties | Note Values", I selected "Stems and beams" in the TOP VOICE only. However, it doesn't seem to be working properly. Maybe I am missing another setting or the selected font plays a role!?
Any idea what is happening here?
Thanks, Gary

Top voice? Ie Lute 1, I guess?
And so, why do you select "Stems and beams", for which goal? By setting instead, "Note symbols", as the other lutes, it seems expected here, right? See: Ung gay bergier.mscz

I am preparing this score for a course and the organizer asked if I can display the rhythms like in this score from Serge Gerbode (attached).
What I am trying to achieve is "attached" rhythm markings (which is exactly what the preview shows in Musescore when I select "Stems and beams").

Well, in this case, the Preview is not really intended (and implemented) for Historical Tablatures.
Nevertheless, you can achieve this result. It's a specific style, and then you must edit the beaming. Give me some time (maybe tonight) to explain to you how to do it.
EDIT: meanwhile, see this thread: https://musescore.org/en/node/81051

If by "attached" you mean "beamed", then you should enter notes of duration shorter than a quarter note. (Unless you desire 'historical' beaming.)

I guess that is a problem since the smallest note value is a quarter note (time signature = 4/2).

Again, the display of stems and beams is not intended for historical tablatures, only for modern tablatures. As said, one can get the result of Gerbode, but by editing beams afterwards in a certain way and in a certain configuration. Please read the topic (link given above) and try to do so. If you encounter difficulties, feel free to say where you are exactly (with a file at this precise step).

Thanks! I gave it a quick try based on the link and it works. I will have to decide whether it is worth the effort for this project.
