Thank you, I'll give that a try!

Hello Everyone! I already tried getting an answer to this at Zendesk but no such luck. So, I'm using Finale 27.3 on Windows 10 for film composition. I compose for film by notating as I watch the video, not the other way around where notation is secondary. I am having great difficulty using ReWire wi...

Oh my gosh, yep that was it! So weird that it even got switched over to the other thing - probably while I was noodling around trying to get ReWire to work properly, haha!

Thank you so much for the help!

Hello Everyone! I am currently running the most up-to-date version of Finale 27 on Windows 10 64 bit. While using Speedy Entry in a full orchestral score I'm working on, no matter which instrument I have selected, only the Oboe sound is being used for the "audio preview" before you actually enter a ...

OK! At least I'm not going crazy and it's happening to other people too. I don't need to hear stuff like that while I'm writing, so I'll just have to switch to using custom line as you mentioned.

Thanks for the help!

Oh! No problem - here's the full file:

The issue is on page 24. Again - assuming that's the issue, since when I deleted it, everything is fine, but when it's there, the crash happens 100% of the time.

Thank you!

I know about a decade ago there wasn't really a solution to this problem other to make a custom line - I'm hoping there is a troubleshoot for it now - but if I need to break out the custom line tool, so be it!

Sure! Thank you - here are 3 screenshots: (Naturally, the post reversed the image numbers, but you get the idea, ha!) 1. The "offending actor" (I don't get this error when I delete the trill extension) 2. Finale initially crashing 3. My attempt at trying to screenshot the error box as it actually cl...

Hello Everyone! As far back as I can remember, adding the "wavy trill line" above instruments has caused Finale to crash for me. (Specifically, adding "shakes" to trumpets - so without the "tr" preceding it). If it just sits there in the score - mocking me - things seem to be fine, but as soon as I ...

If you give your graphic a white background instead of a transparent background, it looks better. Motet, thank you for this! I'll go ahead and give it a try. Funny - I figured maybe a transparent background would let Finale work less hard with the file. But perhaps it needs a little hand holding in...

Hello Everybody! Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong with this, or if perhaps I am simply using the wrong settings when printing a PDF file using Adobe. For some reason, the PNG file I'm using at the very top of my score looks fine while in Finale, but as ...

Hello Everybody! Thank you so much for any help you can provide in advance. I am a bit of a troglodyte when it comes to music production (even though I'm a film composer) so my question may make some of you laugh in its simplicity. I recently upgraded from Finale 2012 to 25, and was really surprised...
