Re: Quarters and rests in triplets of half-notes
Worked fine for me. The sequence in Simple, using the numberpad and QWERTY keyboard: 5, pitch, OPT-9 (ALT-9 on /windows.) Set 3 half notes in space of 2 half notes. OK 0 (zero) pitch 0 pitch 0 No backing up, no deletions, no Ëxtra Note setting. As I've mentioned before, some tuplets push a couple of...

Yes, that’s the font it showed. It’s a paid font, and I don’t need it, so I’ll pass on this one.

Re: Music spacing problem
Your file opened with an incorrect font(s). Even after changing the font to Maestro, things were odd. So I can't offer much hope, except to say that maybe you should reduce the number of measures per line.

Re: Articulation With Different Playback Settings
Make copies, and edit them individually. You’ll need a way to keep them straight, so maybe number or letter them,
You may find it easiest (I did, at least) to use the Mac keyboard shortcut setup, to avoid conflicting with other metatools.

Re: Finale 27 Won't Boot - Mac/Monterey
Deauthorize Finale, uninstall, reboot, and reinstall. If it works properly, reinstall the plugins a few at a time (although I doubt that’s the provlem.)

Re: Quintuplets
In Simple entry, enter the first note, tap ALT-9 on your numberpad, set the numbers as 5, 16ths in the space of 4, sixteenths. OK. When you return to the score, enter the additional notes.
If you have a lot of these, check Set as Default. Then, enter the first note and tap just the 9.

Re: eighth note triplet with quarter note as second note
Dan, I think the step you are missing is when you are pressing the 9 key. The default setup for tuplets is 3 (use current) in the space of 2 (use current.) So when you enter the quarter note and the tap the 9, Finale thinks you are creating a quarter note triplet. So, enter your quarter note, and ta...

Re: How do we double note values in a passage?
Yep, no change. It jammed up one measure, but a simple Music Spacing took care of it.

Re: How does we double note values in a passage?
Burt, I don't understand. If you want to double the note durations, you have to rebar, or you have too many notes in a measure. I selected 2 measures of a score I'm working with, which contain eights, dotted quarters, dotted eights, sixteenths, quarters, and half notes: pretty much everything. I wen...

Of course, (if) after I find them, I’ll be asking for help how to use them, but that’s another problem…

What is this, why is it here? As usual, I imported an XML from SmartScore, and imported it into Finale.

Re: mover tool
David, great idea, moving the initial rest, down. I used layers, but your way is easier.
jo, with motet’s instructions, I doubt you still need my Finale file.

Re: Lyrics too low
motet, in my experience, it’s easier to have them in different verses. And make sure that the voices are on different channels, as well.
Jose, yes, that's the way I would do it.

Re: Lyrics too low
Your lyrics are pretty messed up. I can tell by selecting a lyric while the lyrics window is open, and seeing how the selection is jumping around. Right now, both soprano and alto are in verse one, and tenor and bass in verse two. Each part (SATB) should have its own lyrics, in verses 1, 2, 3, and 4...

Re: Lyrics too low
If you are in Type Into Score mode, select a lyric, and you will see 4 triangles on the left. Grab the 3rd triangle from the left, and you can move all the lyrics up or down in that system. To move them globally, grab the 1st triangle on the left.

As far as I know, you’ll have to create the circle as an expression, and add it to the hairpin. This is a long-standing request, and they have not implemented it.

No, SmartScore is a completely separate product. Do your scanning and editing there (and there IS a learning curve) and take the XML into Finale for final tweaks. Look over the selection of products.
