Hello.

The person I am writing music for wants what he called "time-codes" above each bar, which indicate how many seconds have passed.

I really don't want to have to calculate this and write it myself for hundreds of bars, so I did as search on Google but no results.

Does this function exist on Finale 2010?

Thank you.

Actually "time-code" does exist in Finale 2010.
It is a measure number style:

Document menu > Edit Measure Number Regions…

In the pop up menu "Style", choose "Time…".

See the attached screen shot.

Then, I stand corrected. Again.

Thanks, Peter!
