Re: Chord playback errors over slash notation?
Peter.. "I am quite sure that this is an oversight from MakeMusic. You should report it to the folks in MakeMusic’s Tech Support" I will definitely email them.. Thank you for explaining the difference in font issues between the default doc and the handwritten template.. "Instead of modifying the Def...

Re: Chord playback errors over slash notation?
Peter, thanks again for taking the time to walk me trough this.. So the good news is when I choose File menu > New > Default Document and add chords.. everything plays back perfectly and I do not have to define anything.. The playback is fine enough for me as is.. As far as defining suffixes, I went...

Re: Chord playback errors over slash notation?
Peter, I tried what you recommended with defining the suffix and when I hit "Set Play" I get a suffix key number offset box?
When I select ok, and proceed I still hear only major chords playing back..
Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong again?
Thank you so much..

Re: Chord playback errors over slash notation?
Peter, Glad I can just add slash notation without added notes to the measure 1st.. As far as chords suffixes not being defined.. I did 2 previous charts where the chords played back just fine.. and to be honest, the chord playback feature is why I ultimately chose Finale over it's competitors... I h...

Re: Chord playback errors over slash notation?
Ha! Silly melody! I entered 4 random quarter notes then apply staff styles to get 4 slash notation marks.. Sounds like I am doing that wrong? I assume I can just apply staff styles to a bar with a whole rest in it? Not sure where I saw/read that u have to add musical notaion first before changing to...

Re: Chord playback errors over slash notation?
Hey Peter, Unfortunately do not think it is document specific.. The screen shot above was from a new document trying to re create the problem.. and I had the same issue.. So I attached the actual finale document here..I deleted all of the 2nd page and other stuff to make it under 100KB, but you have...

Re: Chord playback errors over slash notation?
Sorry, I forgot to add, the C and D triads play back correctly...
*The C triad proceeds the D which got cut off in my screen shot..

Re: Chord playback errors over slash notation?
Thanks Peter, but I have been ok with leaving "enable chord playback" on thus far when working with finale... This is definitely a new problem that seems to come out of nowhere... To test this issue out, I started a new finale document, and entered in some chords both over slash notation and then ju...

Re: Spacing Margins on Lead Sheet?
Thanks miker, EZ enuff!
Lastly, where would I go to make all the measures a bit bigger now that I got the margin spacing even?
Thanks again!

Spacing Margins on Lead Sheet?
Hello, after printing my lead sheet I noticed the margins seem a bit off... There is a good amount of space on the left side versus the right.. How can I get the staves evenly spaced on both left and right side.. I went to Document-Page Format-Score and I tried changing some parameters and nothing c...

Adding an = to Tempo Marking
Hello, When using the setup wizard I specified a tempo marking for my chart at quarter note=103.. Finale displays it as quarter note then 103... I want to add an equals sign in between the two, but when I go to edit text attributes my equals sign gives me a staff sign? This is for the tempo marking ...

Chord playback errors over slash notation?
Hello, I was just noticing that Finale does not play the correct chord quality when playing back bars with slash notation... For ex: F#min7 plays back like an F#min/E which is really out and not helpful when listening back to the notation... When I change from slash to regular music notation the cho...

Peter, thank you so much for the reply..I am just able to respond to this issue now... I did attach a new picture isolating the issue I am still having, most notably with the natural sign...

Unsuccessful install of Finale 2014 on laptop (2nd computer)
Hello, I understand that you can now install Finale 2014 on multiple computers but you can only authorize it to work on one computer at a time.. For some reason when I installed 2014 onto my laptop, I am not even able to open the software... I just get the spinning beach ball of death...Then it unex...

Re: Newbie to Finale 2014 with multiple questions..
Peter, thank you for the reply..
Grace note setting is:
0.08333
Accidental to note spacing is:
0.02778
What values would bring both of those closer to the right to their respective notes?
Thanks again!
