Motet, that's what's weird: using either option, it SEEMS to be exporting. But the files aren't showing up either in the default file or the folder I indicate. They do show up in my Windows folder of recent documents, but when I try to open them, I get a message saying "This file is no longer availa...

I've never had trouble exporting pages as JPGs via the graphics tool before. This document won't allow me. It says it's done it, but then the files aren't where the program says they'll be. I've checked my preferences, but no luck. Any suggestions? https://www.dropbox.com/s/0s1clzhkrtxzhsj/Legally%2...

Help, please. My cubase is on the fritz and Steinberg isn't responding to support requests. Could someone run this piece through their DAW of choice and pull the organ patch back somewhat then export as a .wav or .mp3 or something,? It's playing ff throughout, which in the pp sections is jarring, at...

Helloelloelloello....

https://www.dropbox.com/s/tsrcbjbk5c7bfnn/The%20Glamorous%20Life%20%28Film%20Version%29.musx?dl=0 This is an old document (2009 or 2011) that I've reopened in 2014.5 and switched to Noteperfomer. A few minor things don't work: Pizzicato works in the violins and bass, but not in the violas or celli. ...

That worked!

Help...?

Any ideas why some lines are not playing at all?

Perfect! And since this whole section in the percussion is supposed to sound "loose" anyway, correct playback isn't top of my mind.

OK, riddle me this, guys: In example 1, I was able to make this work just with the tuplet tool, no special or other alteration: 5-4 Ex 1.jpg But in this other space, no luck: 5-4 Ex 2.jpg Exactly the same settings in the tuplet window in both cases. The patterson plugin Lite doesn't seem to have any...

YES! This is what I'm looking for. Michael, how did you do this? Which plug-in?

Hi Peter,

You've done five 8ths in the space of 4. I'm looking for five quarter notes in the space of four. (I want to change what's there now). And that will be across the border, and I'm not sure how to do that.

I want to switch the grouping of these notes from 3:2 to 5:4, which means coming up with some workaround to get the last 2 notes of the first group across the bar line. Assuming there's no plug-in, JW or otherwise, to easily do this, any suggestions for a workaround? I realize I'll probably have to ...

Well, yes, it would: and it's annoying that I swear I checked for that before posting this. Several times. Covid brain. The entire score seems to have that selected. I wish I could remember why.

Thanks.

Why are mm. 435 and 436 showing as 4/4, but clearly acting as 3/4?

Sorry, I meant time signature. And it still doesn't work with all staff styles cleared.

Folks, see the last page of this document, mmms. 430 on. https://www.dropbox.com/s/q6m2ts4vf2h5yb5/Summer%20Day%20Part%204%20formatted%20v2.musx?dl=0 Something funky's going on with time signatures: see the 1st harp in mm. 434 - 438. In score view, I can't access the key signature menu at all. In sc...

This document is a XML export / import fix, which has resulted in its own problems, e.g. time signatures overlaid on each other in measures. Mm. 1-3 should be 9/8 + 1/4, but the document is imposing either 12/8 or 4/4 over that. The Time Signature option in Clear Selected Items isn't available. Sugg...

Yeah, I figured it might be something like that. Good thing I still have the template.

Argh: not only is it still doing it, but it's now reordering my staves when I try to hide. Even when I unhide all staves, the order is all over the place.

Well, since you'r all likely to lose sleep over this, I figured it out (or something): I removed the huge number of unused percussion instruments (from the preceding document). Then applied broad music spacing to the entire document, cleared Manual Positioning, respaced, and boomed: everything hides...

That's what I'm doing: imploding staves, then trying to hide the empty ones, and resizing based on the remaining staves.

It must be something with this document. The last project I did, also in 2014.5, did not have this issue.

OK, the bug is happening somewhere in the process of resizing the pages. The template document is set to 40%. Motet, I've been able to merge / implode staves fine with the document you sent me. But if I try to resize the entire document, or even just one page, the following page, still at 40%, won't...

Thanks, motet. Did you have to do anything unusual? I still can't figure out why my version won't do this.

Yup. And nothing.

But as I say, from mm. 290 on it works fine. I can't figure out what's in the middle that's preventing it.
