Finale Forum

if I click on Edit Categories whilst one of them is selected the whole software crashes. Hi strablonsky I'm also on a huge project and had the same issue after importing some fragments, even when I pasted "only notes". So glad to hear I'm not the only one. This works for me to avoid the Finale cras...

For your information: I reinstalled Aria Player and everything seems to work now.
Thanks for your time, even if you didn't know a solution.

Hello experts Finale 26.3 on WIndows 10 suddendly crashed when inputting notes (not rests), trying to play back or changing playback from VST to MIDI and some other features within the MIDI menu. Further tests: Restarted computer. Files with playback through midi are still working. I opened an old f...

dankreider & MikeHalloran, thank you for your input dankreider, I'll try that out to MikeHalloran, about Your real problem is that, in the key of F, Gbm is the correct name for that chord, not F#m I see it as follows: when we transpose from F to E all chords will change names: F will become E, G wil...

Hi, Peter
Thanks for joining.
For me "simplify spelling" doens't make any difference; does it for you?

kind regards,
Erik

thank you, Zuill In the mean time I saw that the attachment was not there and I added it. Typing the double # did the trick. Problem would be if there were a lot of chords to correct... So if we could find an answer to get the correct results straight on that would be very nice. For me personally ne...

Hello I have some music in the key of F with some chords like F, Bb, Gm Added "capo" chords via menu Utilities. Capo at fret 1, so all chords should be a half tone lower Result E, A, Gbm I am not pleased with that Gbm, it should be F#m QUESTION 1: How can I get F# immediately: did I miss a setting? ...

Thank you for your comment.
I will experiment with your suggestions.

Perhaps important: I can not get it printed properly using Acrobat eighter.

Hi, all, I already posted a thread about this: after several months, I'm trying again and am at loss. I've read numerous threads on different forums too. I am completely calm, tried again and again several days, each time with a clear fresh head. My page layout is "ready to print" with margins exact...

Hi,
Perhaps check "midi thru" and set to "smart"

kind regards,
Erik

Is it solved or was that last reply some kind of clarification?

Hi,

Have a look at "Measure repeat signs" in the Help files
Seems like you said that it wasn't that what you need, but some more effort to explain and an example might get you further

kind regards,
Erik

PS: I think "besat" is "beat"

Agostomortal,
You could use the measure tool. Select some measures, Edit Measure Attributes, change width.

Hi,
Could you ask a specific question? If is not related to this thread, I think you would better start a new thread.
kind regards,
Erik

try the attachment
check how it was done

Hi,

another thing to check
"human playback" must be set to "none"

kind regards,
Erik

You did a good job! - If I change page format->part settings just BEFORE generating parts, the parts apply the settings (without even using Redefine pages) Makes me think of a trick before generating parts: change some format setting and then change it back to wat it was. (to tired to test that now)...

That is about linked parts of course Extracted parts, too. I meant: when you have already extracted some parts, you can not redefine them all at once, even if they are open at the moment you perform "redefine": I've tested that and it seemed logic te me, because they are not linked. Perhaps you mea...

You actually can redefine pages (even selected pages) for ALL parts at once : "Page Layout Menu > Redefine pages > Selected Pages of Selected Parts/Score and chose All Parts from page 1 to _ (left the second field blank to apply to all pages)" Thanks, That is about linked parts of course. Good to k...

OK, same result! It works with new files. My default file and templates date from at least version 2001 which was my previous one. It seems easy to you to contact Tech support: do you have a special relation over there, or could I do the same and get quick answers to? Can't the guys over there solve...

Thanks for your remarks. So, we see the same things. Glad to hear that, else I would become mad :D Hopefully someone has a solution. It's not a big deal under normal circumstances, but quite strange... - you could define the page size as A4 rather than Custom (unless it is the conversion which lost ...

Thanks for trying to help, michel, I'm lost. I am using Finale for many years and know about those formats, I know about "redefine pages" and a lot of stuff like templates, copies etcetera, but do not understand why parts would not follow the formats that I have set even before they were created . T...

Hi, Thank you for the follow up, Peter. Can somebody test the "mus"? I'm using "extract" because now I want to edit a part without changing the score. I checked the linked parts and they have the same behaviour. I need to "redefine pages" before they get the correct layout. Shouldn't that be automat...

Peter, Thank you for your answer. Not sure if you didn't interprete my question in the opposite way or my english was not correct. I think my settings are correct: but they are not applied in the extracted part, unless I explicitly do "redefine". I do not understand what happens and will refrase my ...
