change staff attributes for one measure only

I'm making a chord chart and using slash notation. However, I'd like to put the lead in melody in the first measure. I can only seem to change staff attributes for the entire chart. How can I change just one measure to allow me to notate?

Changing fretboard style and setting it as default

I'm trying to create a template. At the moment the default fretboard style is set to "Jazz." I want to change it to "Jazz 2." I can change it to Jazz 2 in the fretboard styles box, however, the Set As Default button does not work. I click it and nothing happens. Suggestions? I'm running the 27.3.0.1...

Re: question marks on top of fretboard diagrams

Thank you BuonTempi. As I said, I am an infrequent user of Finale and so not as aware of these things as I should be. What is the most effective way to communicate this problem to MM?

Re: question marks on top of fretboard diagrams

I'm afraid you may be right. The chart is fine on another computer running an older Mac OS. If anyone knows a workaround I'd love to know it.

Re: question marks on top of fretboard diagrams

Here's an example - looking at file in Finale - fine, looking at preview in print to PDF - not fine. Printed version - not fine - this has happened to every chart I have - retroactively.

question marks on top of fretboard diagrams

Hello, I am an infrequent user of Finale and hope someone can help me. I'm using Version 27.30.160 on a Mac using Sonoma 14. Over the years I have made a large number of lead sheets/charts that contain fretboard diagrams. These lead sheets always printed properly and the fretboards looked normal. Su...
