Re: Linked Parts, blank pages added

Thanks for your help, but the suggestions have not brought any solution. Maybe it is a new bug after all. :(
My current finale version is: 26.3.1.520, german version. Perhaps there is a solution after all.
Eventually I will install the demo of FIN 27 and test if the problem occurs there.

Linked Parts, blank pages added

Hi, what is the cause of this misbehavior? For some time now, blank pages are always appended when creating linked parts. My workaround is to save the page and reopen it. However, this is a big effort if you have to edit a lot of single voices. Something in Finale must have changed, because earlier ...

Re: Dynamics below the stave

Hi Hector,
I prefer to arrange the dynamics in vocal scores above the system and place the vocal text below. In instrumental compositions the dynamics are always below. But this is also the usual way, in my opinion.

Correct measure numbers in regions

Hi to all, how do you deal with the following standard problem: In a file with many bar sections, you need to insert a bar. Now the bar counters are not correct anymore, bar 1 of the following section becomes bar 2 and so on. Of course, you can move everything one digit further by hand under "Edit b...

Re: Display in concert pitch

Thank you Zuill for this detailled explanation. Now I have programmed 2 little skripts (on/off) for this. Maybe I will transpose it to JWLua, to have a toggle with only one key.

Re: Display in concert pitch

Maybe a Finale 25 problem? Works perfectly in 2014.5.
This might be the reason, I've also tried it succesful in 2014.5. Unfortunately a bug inside Fin25 or TGTools, don't know :( . Thank you to all.

Thanks for the advice. But I have already tried programming via TGTools with various key combinations. Many other accesses run via this method, but "Display in concert pitch" unfortunately not. :(

Does a keyboard shortcut exist to switch on/off 'Display in concert pitch'? I mean, there was one in earlier editions.

Re: change octave of playback instrument?

Hi Peter,
make an upgrade to FIN25 and you will get, what you want (correct sounding Bassclarinet is inside). Take the demo before and check it out.

Re: Human Playback works in .wav file but not in Finale

The used sound is a "Steinway D", this is not inside Fin2014. It came with Fin25. Maybe here is the problem.

Re: Percussion Names

Hi Peter,
Mostly it should be for the performer. But also the other way was not bad. I thought, that I could see it on the computer screen and then make a printout which contains the percussion names.

In this file the tempo should stay from beginnig to end (quarter = 180). But it jumps after the pickup...

Re: Convert rhythm

You could reduce the Quantisation value to 8ths, and then Retranscribe.
And: All entries that are enharmonicized (F# to Gb) return back to default. :lol:
This was the main unsolved problem.

And to use TGTools -> Change -> Pitches or JW Change pitches after that? Could this be a solution of your problem?

In the Score Manager of FIN25 or 25,1 this feature is back. Click on the header: M the whole column is muted, S it is solo. In 2014 they were gone unfortunately.
