Notation hotkeys/shortcuts?
Moderators: Peter Thomsen, miker
I've noticed there are some hotkeys in finale songwriter. But i can't seem to figure out what the hotkeys are for the length of notes. Like for 8th notes or 16th notes. So basically, are there hotkeys for the Simple Entry Palette? If so, what are they? It becomes really tetious to only use the mouse and click back and forth over and over.

Use the number pad keys to select the note length.
0 = 128th note
1 = 64th note
2 = 32nd note
3 = 16th note
4 = 8th note
5 = quarter note
6 = half note
7 = whole note
8 = double whole note
If you are usuing a laptop, there is often, but not always (mine doesn't), a method to use keys in the centre of the keyboard to act as number pad keys. If yours doesn't have this feature, you can pick up a USB number pad for not too much money. They even come in wireless versions.
