Finale layer color / hidden notes

[mihai1]

Hi everyone,

I have a song but I don't know how to make last adjustments to look good. I want all layers to show black notes and no hidden notation. Like a printed paper.

Settings must be available only for this file. Not a general option for all the files that I open or write in the future.

Thanks.

Don't worry about the colours.
They are for viewing on the computer screen only - everything will print in black.

The display colours are not a document specific setting, but rather a program setting, sorry.

I can understand why you would want to see everything in black and white while you proof-read the layout on the screen.
Workaround:
"Print" the document to a PDF file, and view the PDF.

I have a friend who changed EVERY colour in Finale to black (Finale 2007). Then, of course, he was confused when I tried to explain to him the difference between note attached and measure attached expressions.
