Finale Forum

Peter: Actually, I had never before used the Page Layout function, and it is a revelation to me. Thank you so much for telling me about it. I'm about to start experimenting with the page layout tool. If you don't mind, I want to start by adapting your worksheet 3 for my purposes and I will also expe...

Peter, Worksheet 3 is very close to what I'm trying to create. How did you do it? Or can you unlock it and I can make changes to it? The big problem I've been having is using the same clef sign in consecutive measures.

Int the lower right corner of the clef change dialog, check "Place clef after barline."

Thank you! That worked.

I am using Finale version 26 on Mac OS 12.6.1. I have a document with many clef changes, which I want to appear at the beginning of the selected measures. However, when I use the Change Clef Dialog box, Finale inserts the clef sign at the end of the previous measure, as opposed to placing it where I...

Regarding the problem of the last deleted chord reappearing (reinserting itself) as soon as you try to enter a new chord elsewhere. I took the problem to the Customer Support representatives at Make Music.Inc and eventually received a response from Kyle, who came up with the answer. You will find hi...

Peter, Thank you for your input. I really do appreciate anyone who makes the effort to help with these maddening problems that surface from time to time. I would have written to thank you sooner, but I needed a couple days to recover from the previous frustrations. The deleted chords will reappear c...

Peter, Thank you for taking the time to troubleshoot the problem. The problem is definitely intermittent. It will act up for a matter of minutes or hours and, then suddenly, it clears up with no rhyme to why it went haywire in the first place and no apparent reason for why the hiccup suddenly resolv...

Thank you for your assistance in this stressful matter. At this moment, Finale is no longer reinserting deleted chords. I guess the problem in intermittent. Perhaps that is why is did not misbehave for you. Or maybe you did not take the next step of inserting another chord after deleting the first o...

Thank you for getting back to me so promptly. I have downloaded the document to DropBox. Here is a link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gclq8glariojw0j/Kalyna.musx?dl=0 The entire thing is just 16 measures long. If you want to see the problem, just delete a chord. Then move your cursor and enter a new ch...

I'm having the exact problem as Konradh. I delete a chord, but as soon as I move the cursor to a different location so I can enter a new chord, the chord symbol that I just deleted comes back. Has anyone found a solution to this horrific problem that has me dead in the water on a day that I need to ...
