That's the beauty of the FAST and EASY notation entry method that is one of BiaB's joys.

When you click to make a note, you will get a whole note tied to a dotted half note (if it is the first note entered in the bar).

Don't worry right now about all that, just click the NEXT note on the dotted vertical line you want it to be on, and watch the tied note disappear.

The new note will now be of a long value that will fill the rest of the bar. Again, don't sweat it, just click where you want the next note and watch it automatically make the previous note the correct duration again.

This method is wonderful IMO. Just keep on clicking the new notes (or in the case of a Rest, check Rest up above and click on the lines) and you don't have to be involved with picking the right note durations, BB does it intelligently!
