Using Finale 2012, for Mac.

I just copied and pasted some music from one score into another score, and now the Selection Tool will not highlight measures. I messed around with the Edit Filter, but that didn't seem to do the trick. Is there something else that I'm missing?

oh cool! how did you do that?

all i need to do is figure out playback...sadly, the pitchbending yields the same results..

Oh yeah - the piccolo was more of a tossed-off aside, I thought the MIDI would function the same regardless of the instrument - I'm imagining something more like a trombone -the "pitchbend" feature is what I'm looking to explore, moreso than the chromatic/diatonic territory...

How are ...

does anyone have any thoughts?

thanks, miker, i'll review closely.
sometimes i think ctrl-z might be my only friend

hi - I'm a recent convert to Finale from Sibelius - and finding copying-and-pasting to be a little counter-intuitive. I'd like to be able to copy parts of a measure into other parts of other measures, ideally with the option of bumping other notes forward, to make room. I' The selection tool allows ...
