Hi:
I have attached my chart. System #7 -- staff, noteheads, chord symbols -- and after is slightly larger than the preceding systems. Not sure why this happened. Any thoughts as to have to make everything the same size?
Regards, Matt

Headphones not working and playback error
Hi: I'm using Finale on Win10. Some weird stuff happens when I pull out the speaker wire and plug in headphones. Finale audio and playback stop working. After a few seconds, "One or more MIDI devices are not responding" comes up and I have to go into MIDI/Audio > Device Setup > Audio Setup. From the...

Re: Cannot re-add measure numbers
OK see attached. Page one is the new section -- measure number won't appear here. Page 2 is the older section where pages numbers can be made to appear.
Please advise.
Thanks!

Cannot re-add measure numbers
Hi: I have a chart that was a lead sheet and I hid the measures numbers. I expanded that chart to a 4-horn arrangement, but I can't get the measure numbers to come back on the older part of the chart. I have tried the following: Measure -> Show Measure Numbers Measure -> Edit Measure Number Regions ...

Re: Shift-5 not showing half diminished symbol...
Is there a way to have a different number be used as the substitute? i.e., instead of 191, a different symbol number?

Shift-5 not showing half diminished symbol...
...instead an inverted ? displays. I can't get it to show no matter which font (times, arial, maestro, jazztext) I use. Substitute Symbols is checked on the Chord menu. The most helpful thing would be to change the substitute symbol to a different symbol slot, i.e. instead of shift-5 showing slot 19...

Thanks motet -- that works! It would just be nice if these jumping jacks weren't necessary to begin with.

Tuplet not allowing correct amount of notes
Consider this screen shot of what I'm trying to do: notes.jpg As you can see in the 1/4-note triplet, the last 1/16 note should really be an 1/8 note to fill out the bar correctly. It can be changed to a 32nd note (alt-3), but not to an 1/8 note (alt-5). I've tried approaching it a few different way...

Re: whole note in 7/8 bar
Thanks! It's standard procedure in copywork for odd-timed bars to have whole notes to fill the bar, even if it's not a 4/4 bar. This just makes it easier for the writer and for the poor schlub trying to read through the score.

Re: whole note in 7/8 bar
Yep, using top level version of Finale, but it won't allow a whole note (8/8) in a 7/8 bar.

Hi:
How do I display a whole not in a 7/8 bar? It is awkward to write a double-dotted half note. Finale displays a whole rest after all...

Two-bar repeat option not available sometimes
Hi:
So I click the Staff icon, highlight 2 bars and go to Staff > Apply Staff Style To > Score and Parts (or Current Score) and from among the choices, I can select One-Bar Repeat. But Two-Bar Repeat is not available.
Any thoughts?

Re: Hiding courtesy clef also hide clef on new line
Hi Miker: Thanks, but not sure how to select blank staff. My choices for a new doc are: setup wizard, lead sheet, and template. None of them offer an option for blank staff. If I select a lead sheet template, it produces a page full of blank staves with a clef only on the 1st line. Changing the clef...

Re: Hiding courtesy clef also hide clef on new line
OK, attached is the chart. The 6th line (shortest one) has a line that's bass clef. When I selected Hide Courtesy Clef, the real clef is hidden as well.
Any thoughts?

Hiding courtesy clef also hide clef on new line
I'm using Songwriter 2012.
When I select Document > Hide Courtesy Items, the clef on the new line disappears as well. I only would like the new line clef to show.
Any advice?

small notes as rhythmic suggections above chord symbols
Finale windows 7 Songwriter 2012
About a year ago I made the attached chart. Above the 1st bar in the 3rd stave I have some rhythmic markings that I can't for the life of me figure out how I created and can't figure out how to edit. Any ideas?

My humble suggestion is that your online spambot-thwarting forum registration question system is difficult and should be revisited.
