Re: Finale 26.3 broke FinaleScript involving Text Tool

I don't have it set up.I have finale version 26.2 on another Mac, but I don't have the installer. Is there any way I can transfer this from my other Mac?

Finale 26.3 broke FinaleScript involving Text Tool

All my Finale Scripts involving the Text Tool stopped working after upgrading to 26.3, witch is a huge setback for me since they help me save a ton of time. They seemingly run, but are not producing any results, some scripts just flat out stoppes. Has anyone experienced the same problem? Also, does ...

Resetting Lyrics Vertical Alignment

Hello!

I do regularly come across the need to resetting the vertical alignment of lyrics for a whole piece. Up until now I have done so, system for system. It is time consuming and I wonder wether it is possible to do it more easily?

Thank you!

Ties to enharmonic notes/chords to next system

Hi, How do you solve ties to enharmonic notes/chords from one system to next? The problem is that the tie ends disappear on the following system (see attachments: Cb, Fb and Db should tie to B, E and C# in the next). Does anyone have a solution for this that doesn't involve a lot of fiddling or work...

Hairpins in 26.2

I just want to make sure I am to blame and not the program: Regarding the default document settings: has the hairpin opening changed for any of you? I don't recall messing around with the settings concerning this, although it looks as if the opening (the gap) of short hairpins and long hairpins are ...

Please attach a small Finale file showing the misplaced ties. It might be interesting to see if others see the same problem and might help in finding a solution.
Attached Finale's default file.

The ties are off...

I have encountered a problem with ties, they don't seem to complete their path... (see attached file). The first time I encountered this problem was with my default file, using Engraver Font Set in Finale 26.1, paired with macOS Catalina (yes, I know. I should have waited, I was not aware of the pro...

Slurs to ties

I vaguely recall a utility/plugin to change "slured-togethered" notes of equal pitch, to ties. I recently received a score where the composer consequently has used slures in stead of ties... Have I dreamed this, or does this feature exist?

Thanks for any help!

Re: Misplaced ties and slurs

Another thing to consider is that the Engraver fonts were changed several years ago, and that has caused problems. One of the changes is the font name style. For instance, EngraverFontSet and Engraver Font Set are 2 different fonts. According to your list of annotation files, the font you have inst...

Re: Misplaced ties and slurs

Try this- Open a file. If the ties and slurs aren't right, go to Document Menu > Set Default Music Font. The right font is probably selected, so click OK. Any difference? Following these directions, you are not usually making a change, just "touching" the dialog, which may do something. This seems ...

Misplaced ties and slurs

I have come across an error recently, I don't remember if it also occurred before upgrading to macOS Catalina – or wether there have been any recent updates to Catalina or Finale which may have triggered this, but here goes: Ties and slurs are occasionally misplaced (see attachment) when I reopen a ...

Multimeasure doesn't break on time alteration ... correctly(?)

I have the "Break Multimeasure" option in the Category Designer for Tempo Alterations checked, and I see that the outcome is different from when this is not checked. My concern is: if there are say 6 measures of rests where the second beat of measure 3 contains a "rit.", Finale will make two multime...
