Re: Linked Parts in Finale 27

So, this is definitely a bug, but I have found a workaround for anyone else who sees it. In the Score, I add a second hidden grace note between the two visible notes. The hidden note collides with the following note, but the visible grace note moves to its correct spacing. A ton of extra work for me...

Re: Linked Parts in Finale 27

I never had to use a 3rd party solution before for the layer problem. I think I may have placed the real whole note rests in layer 3 or 4 to solve that issue. I'll try that, but the major problem with grace notes remains. With no way to move them in the parts, Finale is basically unusable now.

Linked Parts in Finale 27

Latest update of Fin27, and odd things are happening that never happened in older versions... When editing parts, I notice grace notes collide with their following note, and there is no way to change it. Not with Music Spacing (any setting), not with Special Tools Notehead mover, and I can't even go...

Re: Finale 25 trasposition oddity

Taking out the last gliss solves the transposition problem, but now I don't have the gliss.

Here's a link to the file if you're interested...

The offending passage is in measures 33-35 in the horns. Remove the last note, save and reopen, and everything works. Play it once with the note, and the odd transposition occurs.

Re: Finale 25 trasposition oddity

None of those (intentionally) in the score. And it only occurs once the "out of range" note is played. I do have glisses leading to each, but the others work fine when I remove that one note. And that one note is at the end of the phrase.

Finale 25 trasposition oddity

Did a quick search, and didn't find another posting on this... I have an orchestral score and every instrument is playing back as it should. Loving the fact that transposing instruments now play the correct pitches on entry. HOWEVER, using Human Playback, the instant the Horn part plays a note that ...

Re: Finale crashes while entering expressions 2014.5

In my case, things worked again when I deleted these:

SelExprZoom=0
SelExprWinpos=19 751 964 925
SelExprCatID=4

One of those numbers probably is out of range somehow and killed the function.

Not a programmer, so that's just a best guess.

Re: Finale crashes while entering expressions 2014.5

This happened to me last week, and I was given the same advice. What I did instead was rename the file with the extension .in_, and then restarted Finale. It created a new version, then I opened both in Notepad and compared. I was able to find the offending lines from the old file, excise them, and ...

Re: Get Rid of Simple Entry palette permanently

Just for grins, try dragging the palette back to your primary monitor then uncheck that menu item. There are times when things on the secondary monitor don't get dealt with properly by Finale, especially on Windows.

Yeah, I'm a clarinet player as well and can do the same thing. We are not the norm, however.

Re: How to assign cresc. from silence with playback?

For playback using the Expression tool, create a new expression under the Dynamics category using whatever symbol you desire for the niente . Go to the Playback tab and set the starting dynamic to 1. Zero will use the default starting dynamic, so 1 is as low as you can go. I've tested this, and it i...

Re: Who's here?

cweeks here, but I've been forced to use this new account due to posting issues. A shame the old forum's gone, but this one will probably be better anyway. The only plus I can see for the old is that MakeMusic reps occasionally dropped by to comment, but since that dwindled to almost nothing over th...
