Hey guys. I see people post screen shots all the time for this but cannot for the life of me figure out how to get this to work.
Here is the deal.

I am writing a classical guitar piece and have each part on the Treble cleff as a voice part. This is so I can assign fingerings and whatnot. Anyways, I want the voices to line up so that they are not offset or staggered and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make this happen. My two upper voices are offset and it is not what I want.  What am I missing and how it this done.

Hi,
I recognize your problem, and it won't work in Notion (6.8.2..), because this program is not a really extensive "graphic notation program"). There are simple programs such as Encore 5 that can solve this problem very easily.
(ps.Notion is more for the good sound of how the piece should sound, than for the layout).
(it would be better for you, add a stave and divide the guitar parts over 2 staves (just like for a piano!)
Success with it,
Greetings HarryM.
