Finale Forum

This thread and the thread named Midi notes hanging are related to my problem: MIDI notes hang for me when I just open a *.mus file and playback the piece thru MIDI. Using only CPU 0 or CPU 1, alas, doesn't solve the issue for me. This is a known issue, right? Has there been any word, other than the...

My answer came from using the "makemusic.com" forum, which is as follows: To use the spacebar to start playback. From the menubar, Plug-ins, TG Tools, Menu Shortcuts. In the TG Options popup, Add, Listen, press the Spacebar. Select menu command: MIDI/Audio, Start playback. I use <alt> <Spacebar> to ...

Thanks andrewmicky, I've perused thru the user manual with singer, singer use, singer assign and I think I need more help if you can.

I would like to be able to play/pause playback using something other than grabbing my mouse, moving it over to the stop button, and clicking it. Is there a midi controller assignable short cut? Like a "Listen" key or button that would toggle playback play/pause or play/stop? TGT tools (menu shortcut...

I'm using Finale 2011b with two monitors on Win7 sp1. I guess I should have mentioned that. I was searching around and found another posting in the genral discussion of this forum that pointed me in the right direction. Originally: My monitor "1" is the left smaller monitor over the piano where the ...

I'm back - same problem. On the main tool palette: the Staff tool is selected. Right-clicking on the small box (what I call a "grip") just left of the Treble clef of an existing work, does nothing - is there no context menu for the staff tool, like new stave, or edit staff attributes? same goes for ...

Well, the good news is that I have now got the context menus showing up. The bad news is I have yet to move the FINMIDI.ini to the desktop as suggested. What changed between now and my last session? I don't know, I'm but happy to have the context menus. I hope that they stick around. Thank you for a...

Ok,
1.) New document - same trouble
2.) There is only one account on the Win7 machine; it has sysadmin privledges.
3.) No finale.ini file anywhere. Perhaps a clue???

Thanks for responding, its appreciated.
Sadly,none the context menus appear from the examples you've suggested. Sometimes I get Win7's blue circle for a fraction of a second, sometimes no effect, sometimes the white glove.

None of the main palette tools have right click context menus for me - all I get is the white gloved hand.
Is this an initial set issue?

I was hoping that from the menubar: Edit, Program Options would have a check box for display context menus, but alas not.

Yes indeed. Word 2010, IE8, etc.

I was initially surprised when first trying out Finale that right click didn't do anything (except grab all the staves as an outline until I released the right click again).

I was shocked/hopeful reading through some help saying to use right-click menu. Hmm.

Is there right-click in Finale 2011? Mine currently doesn't. 2011b on Win7 64-it. I can't search on the topic in this forum because it says that "right click" is too common, but adding further adjectives doesn't reveal any thing either. So I've decided I don't care if its a stupid question - I reall...
