Shortcut to move one staff upp or down
I know that holding Alt key and dragging the staff handle moves only that stave. Is there any shortcut that works that way so that I can use up and down arrow on the keyboard? I have tried with Alt + Up but it is another function (made my score extremely messy!). Moving with the mouse is extremely t...

Re: OT: pagination software
I have purchased CutePDF Pro, as recommended by Motet - thank you.
The other options may perhaps work well, but I needed to fix the issue quickly and effectively, so that was the fastest option.

Thanks everyone, I think I will go for Motet's recommendation, CutePDF.

* Have you already tried to add page numbers, footers and headers?
* Does it work well with Finale (print to PDF)?

OT: pagination software
The day my old Win machine totally died, I lost the old version of Acrobat Pro which I used to organise multiple PDF files and add page numbers and headers/footers. Now, when I have multiple Finale files for each movement, I need to combine parts with the correct pagination. What software do you rec...

Re: Finale and 4K monitor
I have three problems with Mac (MBP late 2015, 15 inch): 1. My mac is Mac Book Pro, and despite the dedicated graphical card, it gets very hot when editing in 4K monitor. This is a known issue, not specifically for just my machine. After 15 minutes fans are running at highest speed. 2. Finale on Mac...

Re: Can't print graphics
Make PDF page from your score, download Inkscape, open PDF in it, and than you can theoretically add whatever graphics you want, and colorise whatever symbol you want, without limit.
Than save as PDF again.

Finale and 4K monitor
Friends, I have Mac, but my scores are quite heavy for Finale, and it is very slow. Some of my documents have 1000+ measures, and a lot of information. On Windows it works much faster. After the old Win computer has died, I am trying to find a replacement. The most important is that my BenQ display,...

Re: Grace Note Offset on Entry ?
So, how to move these grace notes at the place shown on my picture, so that they stay there fixed in eternity, and at the same time not affecting all other grace notes in the score (created and to-be crated)?zuill wrote:This is what I get with the default settings.

Re: Grace Note Offset on Entry ?
Yes, but grace note look terribly misplaced.
Just to confirm: I ask here about settings for grace notes, auto spacing and manual adjustments.

Re: Grace Note Offset on Entry ?
Yes, but when I manually move them, they get respaced every time the measure is touched (applied note spacing or entered another note)

Friends, I use dashed slurs in the current document.
What will happen if I send it to my editor with 2014.5 version?

Re: Are v25 and v2014 file compatible?
Thanks.
EDIT: sorry for being boring again, no matter if Finale 2014 is 32 bit, and v25 is 64?
(the problem is that the co-worker is on distance, and I cannot check everything)

Completely compatible, but– New features in Finale 25 will not be present when opened in Finale 2014,5, like the new dashed slurs. Make Music publishes "New Features" papers for each version of Finale. These should be given a close look. N. Except these new features, one can open a file and save th...
