Hi

Sorry to be asking such a basic question, but what's the key command for 'Go to Bar...' these days? used to be command-J but doesn't seem to be anymore...surely there's a key command so i don't have to mouse over to the little box to type it in every time?

Dunno. Look up "keyboard shortcuts" in your version of the manual.

Since you're using Finale 2014, and on a Mac, I can't say. As far as I know, this feature was added in v26. In the v26 manual for Mac, the shortcut is Command+Shift+G.

P.S.: "Go to Bar" is something often done following a rehearsal. The finale feature is called "Go to Measure".

I'm still using v25.

There used to be a 'go to measure' command for years.....did they take it away only to restore it finally in v26? is there really no 'go to measure' command in v25?

cheers and thanks

I've never heard of a "go to measure" command; in scroll view you can type in a measure number in the controls at the bottom of the window. However, the JW Navigate plug-in has it for any view.
