The difference would appear to be Independent elements/Notehead font in the staff attributes. But how could such a thing have been set by accident? In fact my previous template file was made in Finale 2012 for a MIDI keyboard I had. And in Finale v26 it didn't use the Maestro Percussion fonts, even...

Meanwhile, check out this file.

Yes, that's what happens in my previous (Finale 2012) file.

I still wish I could see the original template to satisfy my curiosity. If you don't mind. If my hunch is correct, one click would have saved you a lot of work.

Ok, I still had my previous template file backup saved. Here it is.

Zuill You want me to send you my original template? Ok, no problem, that would also satisfy my curiosity, but I must see if I still have i...

I think that the solution for me was as I described. I had done all these settings in my template made in the previous Finale 2012 version. And whatever did with checking 'Maestro Percussion' fonts everywhere, it never appeared in my Layout. I But I ADDED a new stave in that template, I made it Perc...

HOWEVER !! I did all these settings in my Template made in the previous Finale 2012 version. But now, I ADDED a new stave in it and made it Percussion and... BINGO, now it comes in the Score Manager selection with the 'Maestro Percussion' fonts !! Of course, I have to re-assign all noteheads from sc...

Is Maestro Percussion Regular in c:\Windows\Fonts?

Yes it is in C:\Windows\Fonts, but still it doesn't appear in the Finale Score Manager in the Percussion Layout selection where I created my Drum Set. There's only 'Maestro' fonts, not 'Maestro Percussion' !

Is Maestro Percussion available as a selection in Document Options/Fonts/Percussion Noteheads?

Zuill

Yes it is there, but still it doesn't appear in the Score Manager in the Percussion Layout selection where I created my Drum Set. There's only 'Maestro' fonts, not 'Maestro Percussion' !

Well, no, I just made a titanic battle with reassigning note heads in 'Maestro' fonts. Of course, I would prefer 'Maestro Percussion' but now I have no time for a further battle and for the time being I I'll live with it.
Thanks for your feedback anyway!

Hello folks. I am a Finale user since 20+ years. Currently I use v26. There are few issues with it, but at the moment one is particularly tough. I created my own Drum Set and saved it as Library with another name. Then I load it in other documents, and... the fonts are not Maestro Percussion but jus...

Hello, I'm a long time Finale user, since Finale 2005 and I highly appreciate it. Now I upgraded from Finale 2012 to Finale v26. Some minor changes are visible but I have to explore it to find more, worthy to for the price I paid. So far, I have an embarrassing issue with Tempo checking. In the prev...
