What monitors are you using for Finale?
Apologies if this doesn't belong here.
What monitors are you all using for Finale? I had a cheap one at work that made the staff lines look all fuzzy. Do I really need to spend $1k on a monitor that has iMac resolution or are there better alternatives?
TIA!

Hi Peter...yeah...what happened to those? They're no longer included with Finale? I don't have them on v. 26

4/4/to 12/8 conversion
Hey all,
I have a Finale piece written in 4/4 with tons of triplets. I'd like to easily convert to 12/8. Is there a way to do this?

Weird when trying to copy
Hey all,
Weird thing is happening with this one file. When I try to copy some measures, it all turns blue. If I try and paste onto a new doc, it pastes with the blue. Any idea? Never seen this before. See attached.
Thanks,
David

Does this happen to anyone else? Every time I switch from Speedy to another tool, this happens and I have to update the screen in order to set it right. Ideas?

Re: Don't beam when tied
Thanks, guys. Peter...yeah, I know it's quick but I have a long passage like this and it prompted me to ask if there was a way to bypass going back.

Don't beam when tied
Hey all, I know about the Document option to have 8ths beamed across 2 beats or not, but I wanted to know if there's a way to tell Finale this... 1) DON'T beam 4 eighth notes together when the & of 1 is tied to the 2nd beat. 2) DO beam 4 eighth notes together when there is no tie. See attached pic. ...

Re: Tying chords
Thank you everyone. As I said, I know the rule. I'm looking to override the rule. I want to set Finale to ALWAYS tie the entire chord. Regardless of mouse or crosshairs.
It's a mistype. I meant "to" not "top."

Tying chords
Hey all, Other than when I'm writing an organ part, there is never a time when in Speedy, I want to tie just one note of a chord to another. For 99% of my writing, I want to tie the entire chord. Now I know the rule about the mouse hovering deciding whether it's the whole chord that ties or not, but...

Smart Shapes with Mac Trackpad
Hey all, I've actually always had this issue so it's not an update thing but: I use the Mac trackpad and have it set for light tapping (meaning, I just gently tap and not push hard for a "click."). Anyway, this works with everything except the Smart Shapes which require click and drag, like hairpins...

Pasting text font
Hi group. I am currently copying and pasting a lot of dialogue from a PDF onto a Finale score as “text.” Is there a way to set the font so that with each paste, I don’t need to individually change the font of the text each time I paste in some lines? Thanks!

Key Commands and Default Docs
Hey all. Is anyone using Touch OSC (ipad) and OSCulator for controlling Finale? I am able to set it to follow Finale’s key commands (like esc for selection tool) but commands like CTRL+OPT+F, which allows me to jump to a different tool, like speedy are document-specific. So I was advised to save my ...

Anyone else having this problem? My Finale is like delayed a second or two with every function I try. 1) I have plenty of storage. 2) Plenty of Memory. 3) I've restarted the computer several times. 4) No other computer application does this. I am baffled and it makes workflow awful. Please help! Tha...
