Graphics Duplication

[MowingDevil]

So when graphics are placed into Finale they often have to be resized. If you using multiple instances of the same graphic it would be essential that they are the same size. Once a preferable size is achieved in the score, how do you ensure that the other instances will be the same size (each time you place a new one it will need to be resized to match). Is there a way to do this? Better yet, is there a way to duplicate the resized graphic that is in the score? Alt dragging doesn't do anything for some reason, it doesn't appear it can be copied+pasted either. There's got to be a way.

Anyone? There's got to be a way to duplicate graphics within a score and not having to insert each time and resize by eye.

…and resize by eye.

Once you place the graphic, resize it as desired then double click on it with the Graphics Tool. In the window that appears, change to "Attach To Measure…". To copy this graphic to other locations, set the Edit Filter to copy only Measure Graphics. The copies will maintain the resizing. Is this what you want?

Beautiful!

(your answer, not the process...that is way more involved than it should be but happy there's a solution - cheers!)

re: resizing graphics. I've either been dragging by eye or using 'graphics attributes' and adjusting the scale at the bottom. Is this the latter the most effective method?
