Re: Make measures taller without formatting issues?
The music obviously needs some re-spacing (type Cmd + 4).

Re: Speedy Entry - MIDI Input Channel - Restrict to Ch. 1????
Have you tried Midi/Audio -> Device Setup -> Midi Thru -> instead of the usual "Smart" button, try Fixed Channel : 1. Not tested.
Otherwise, your midi interface maybe set to send on a unique channel temporarily.

Re: Slash Cords - Colliding
Chord Kerner v.2 (a great script for RGP Lua, Mac only for the moment) works fine with RGP Lua 0.67. The later versions have problems.
A good reason to keep several versions of RGP Lua, in separate sub-folders of the plug-in folder.

Re: Slash Cords - Colliding
In your music, an oblique slash would be more adapted to conventions (alternate Bass defined "as Subtext") which usually means a chord on top of a bass note, not 2 superimposed chords (a horizontal line) This would solve your issue. To do it globally (also for the A-7 over D) select your whole piece...

Re: Orange chords?
The chords may have been moved in the part, so they are unlinked to the score, where they appear orange.

Re: Inserting flat symbol into Score Manager/"Score Name" Insert with Raleway font
On the Mac (where Ctrl is often replaced by the Cmd key), it is Cmd+Shift + F and S.
In the part name (Manage Parts -> Edit Part Name), the characters don't display the musical symbol, but they are fine on the part.

Re: Inserting flat symbol into Score Manager/"Score Name" Insert with Raleway font
It is not possible to have 2 fonts in the File Info -> Score Name box. But if you go to the score, you can add another text (which uses another font in the same text box, after or before the Score name). It would more complicated if the musical symbol has to be in the middle of the score name. In th...

Is the JW Plugins folder that you have created a subfolder of the Plug-ins folder ? It should be. Do you see that subfolder in the plugins menu ?
Don't forget to relaunch Finale after you move things.

The plug-ins should be in the "Macintosh Library" (your hard disk), not your user account library. The first 2 images show the correct path in this logic. So, make sure that the plug-ins are in that location. Question : do you have a M1 or M2 Mac ? (please add that information to your profile). If y...

Re: JW Rhythm Copy / Paste not working
JW Pattern Copy is the plug-in you are referring to.
I think it is still available on Jari Williamsson's website. http://www.finaletips.nu/index.php/download
P.S.: if you have a Mac with a M1, M2 processor, the plug-on will only work if you launch Finale 27 in Rosetta mode.

That's not the way the plug-in works. The source and destination should have the same number of notes (with different rhythms). The destination can't be a whole note.
