In the example below, it looks strange that there are two tied eighth-note Gs instead of a single quarter-note. The engraver ought to combine them, especially since I asked for 1/4.

The 3/8 division of the bar should be notated with a dotted-quarter rest (or in older practice a quarter rest followed by an eighth). An eighth followed by a quarter rest is incorrect. For me this sort of thing would be a deal-breaker with using the completion engraver with compound meters. These are errors I'd like to be able to correct, and you can't do it here. At least not that I know of. --David
