Hi, I use Finale Guitar 2003. I want to create custom fretboard diagrams for scales. (major/minor/pentatonic .. etc. ) I feel pretty comfortable using the software but I haven't been able to figure out how to rotate a chord diagram so the "nut end" of the diagram is on the left. Does anyone know if this is this possible?

I'm not sure, whether this is possible in Finale Guitar, since Finale Guitar is a smaller version of Finale.
It is possible in Finale, with a workaround:
You can create the chord diagrams as shape expressions.
Finale has a powerful Shape Designer with a drawing environment that allows the user to combine lines, text, circles and polygons.
These shapes, however, won't automatically transpose if you change the key.
I don't know whether Finale Guitar has Finale's Shape Designer.
