Are there working Finale articulations for leans, scoops and slides? My director would like me to add them to the learning tracks that I'm generating for the chorus.
And if so, can they be applied to a piano line, even though a piano can't do it?

Try these Smart Shapes.
Not a good screen shot, sorry,

It didn't work, or maybe I'm just not smart enough to figure out, how.
Thanks, though!

The Arrow with the Twist makes a scoop for me, and you can bend it around to tailor the sound.
Maybe put it on the note before you want the scoop.

Try loading the Jazz Font Articulation Library. There are some articulations there that might work. When I loaded it into the Default File, the Scoop articulation (#127 after loading) seems to work.
