Re: Scripting issue
Thanks for helping! «Highlight Systems 2 to 5» will only work if there are 5 systems in total. I have already tried that one out (if I am not missing something out here) That means that I have to change the script for every document as long as the documents contain different numbers of staffs. What ...

Re: Scripting issue
Excellent!! Now I'm finally getting somewhere. For the rest of the systems: Do I have to set up one line for each system? Some documents have only 3, and others have up to 15. Then I will need 15 entries. That seems unnecessary... Is there a way define System 2 to the end? I have tried different sol...

Scripting issue
Hello! I want to change the values for the systems top margins in a lot of documents. How do I distinguish between the systems I want to affect? Example: I want the first systems top margin to be 150 points, and the rest (2 thru 0) to be 20. I am only able to affect all. «System Top margin 150» sets...

Re: Finale 27 Metatools
Lightening struck, and I woke up.... and then I fell asleep again..... But in between something happened... Problem solved - at least mine though. All metatools works fine with SMuFL document styles. The problem was my laptop keyboard. Switching to an external (USB) keyboard solved it. But - should ...

Re: Finale 27 Metatools
Have the same problem. Tried to fix it by entering "Maestro Font Default.ftmx" under preferences - as advised. Have also tried to use the Legacy Font document styles that are still with us, but nothing could fix the problem. However, Metatools programmed to NumPad works fine....

Re: Finale Script - address Lyrics Window Text box
Hi! Thanks! Worked a bit on this one.... I discovered that the real problem was that I didn't include the line "lyrics tool", as You did, before calling the "Lyrics window". With my former script I could bring up the Lyrics Window, but it was not possible to paste anything into the "Text box". After...

E-learning
Hello! This is not a direct Finale related question, but I am taking my guess that someone of you would know the answer. In these "Corona times" we are all forced to teach our music students over an e-learning platform of some kind. Does anyone know of a platform that can listen to and transmit more...

Re: Lyrics text size
Thanks! To Carloshaz: Yes, as far as I can understand, this solution will work in every case, not just this particular one. An obvious solution though...., but I do not think I want to go down that road. Since all my finaledocuments are almost finished, just some final adjustments needs to be done, ...

Hi! Almost everywhere in Finale I can set text size with comma separated values; ex: 10,5 But Lyrics text does not allow me to do that. Any workaround or plugins that can help me with that? Normally I do not need so spesific sizes, but now I am working on a project where I have a layout, that demand...

Re: FinaleScript - Font attributes
Hi! Can see what You're aiming at. That solution only changes the default font, if I am not missing something here. I have used several fonts and several font attributes with TextBlpcks in my Layout. I need to search for the actual font and replace it. That can easily be done the way I described, bu...

Re: getting smart Music App
Follow mikers solution. His ways are often the best. What he says about; How many pieces - How long and complicated are they? - Budget - Time frame, is really something to consider. SmartScore X2 pro is a powerful tool, but in order to take full advantage of it, you really need to sit down and learn...

Re: FinaleScript - Change Score name
Thanks to You all! I have almost achieved my goal. And I do think I understand the tool a bit better now, maybe... I can now open Score manager, select the correct tab. Changing Score name was somehow harder though. I can enter all the text boxes/fields directly by using the "near" command, and chan...

And I need to change the Score name. Every file will have the same scorename. 2: Is there anyone out there that can give...
