"Continuous scroll" in scroll view?
Is there any way to set Finale to continuously scroll during playback in scroll view rather than display a chunk and then jump to the next chunk once the cursor gets toward the end of the screen?

Re: Guitar bends across systems - display error
Thanks for your response, Djard. Yes, that's what I'm going for but how did you do it? When I try to edit the shape of either end of the bend, weird things happen and I can't get an acceptable shape. I did a screen capture to demonstrate what I mean: https://1drv.ms/v/s!Ankj4ExoHnImhLkpEg8GJM7clwoPb...

Guitar bends across systems - display error
Hi everyone. I've struggled with what I'm pretty sure is a bug in Finale for years now and thought I'd finally see if anyone here has a solution. When entering guitar bends across systems, the graphic gets all messed up. When I try to manually edit them they don't react the way they should and thing...

Re: Migrating to new computer
Thanks for your replies. I'll look into the cloning software.
Shortcuts were with TG Tools. No mention of "lite" anywhere that I can see.
Yes sorry, screen layout.

Migrating to new computer
Is there any way to transfer all of my settings and customizations (plugins, keyboard shortcuts, layout, etc) to my new computer? Same version of Finale (26), going from Windows 10 to 11.

Re: Swing setting affects note volume
Thanks, I have no idea how midi data got applied to those tracks, as I never work with midi in Finale. Maybe I accidentally hit a keyboard shortcut? Anyway, I cleared all the midi data from all tracks and I still get the weird volume dips with human playback turned on, and still can see the mod whee...

Re: Swing setting affects note volume
I don't hear any drop-offs in volume, and I don't see the Mod wheel move at all. Zuill Hmm, I'm surprised your mod wheel isn't moving at all. Isn't that one of the main features of human playback? My mod wheel is constantly moving on all of my instruments, even with human playback turned off. I've ...

Re: Swing setting affects note volume
After more digging, it seems to be an issue with the automatic manipulation of the mod wheel in Garritan during playback. And it seems to mostly affect notes at the end of a phrase, before a rest, as if human playback is trying to do a diminuendo at the end of the phrase but doing it too early and t...

Swing setting affects note volume
Since updating to Finale 26, I've noticed that certain notes will sometimes be extremely quiet during playback, for no discernible reason. After messing around with playback settings a bit, I've traced it to Human Playback; specifically the "swing" setting. When I have a human playback type selected...

Show group name while hiding staff
Is there a way to get the group name to display at the beginning of a system on which the first measure has been hidden? I'm hiding the measure through the staff style "force hide staff".

Re: Scrub plays muted instruments
depending on what instruments (or groups) you have assigned to different banks in the score manager, you can then in the VST Banks and Effects window zero the volume fader, and you will not hear this bank during scrubbing. if you don't use more than 8 instruments you could assign each to a differen...

When using CTRL+SPACEBAR to scrub, Finale plays all instruments, even ones that are muted in the mixer. Is there any way around this?

Re: Unwanted window popup with Staff tool shortcut
Thanks, but why is that obvious? Just wanted to emphasize that neither the shift key nor the chosen letter key are part of the problem. Only using the Ctrl key leads to the unwanted opening of the dialog. So for me, it's obvious that the Ctrl key is the culprit. Okay, thank you. Anyone have any ide...

Unwanted window popup with Staff tool shortcut
I've assigned SHIFT+CTRL+T to select the Staff tool with the TG Tools-->Menu Shortcuts plugin. When I use the shortcut, it does select the Staff tool but it also brings up the New Blank Staves window. I've tried changing the shortcut to SHIFT+CTRL+J and it does the same thing.
Is this a bug?

Re: Customized palette not saving
Thanks HaraldS, Finale saves all of my other preferences just fine, including customizations to other palettes. It seems to be an issue with the Simple Entry palette specifically.

Re: Customized palette not saving
Thanks for the responses. As far as I can tell, the shortcut you're referencing only works when you already have the Simple Entry tool selected.
