Hi,
i was wondering why the natural with arrow up from finale percussion font has different dimensions from maestro font natural, flats and sharps of maestro font are same size of flats and sharps with arrows of the maestro percussion font...
Any idea?
here the screen

My guess ia that it is a matter of being consequent.
If you - instead - examine the arrow-less flat and natural accidentals, you will see a similar height difference at the stem top:
The (arrow-less) flat’s stem ends about one Point higher than the (arrow-less) natural’s stem.

no... the flats symbols are very similar, the natural one if you look at the "bold lines" are really different, it's not a matter or where the line finishes but how the symbol is represented... Also if you insert just the natural from maestro percussion it is identical to the maestro one but the natural with arrow up is different.Peter Thomsen wrote: ↑Thu Apr 22, 2021 8:31 pmMy guess ia that it is a matter of being consequent.

oh ok, i now understood what you told... i misunderstanded.
Mmm yes, it could be but it continues to feel wrong to my eyes, but maybe it is just my perception, same symbol is on ligeti string quartet n.2 and it is the same as the normal natural but with arrow...
I also tried the one in the engraver font but the arrow is not noticeable, really a pity that there isn't the normal natural with arrow.

The natural in Maestro Percussion without the arrows looks the same as in Maestro, but the shape with the up arrow and also the down arrow has a different shape than in Maestro. Curious that they didn't bother to match them.

Please let us know when they respond and what they say. It might be that things will get fixed if we have more users report the issue. In the past, we were able to get the Finale Lyrics font fixed when it was missing much needed characters that were omitted. They responded fairly quickly with a font update. However, when new versions of Finale came out, they went back to the old font. I keep the fixed font file for future use when a new version of Finale reverts back to the old, damaged font file.

Yes it would be great since it is not a very common symbol but also not very unused, useful for all a little bit high pitched sounds in flute multiphonics and so onzuill wrote: ↑Fri Apr 23, 2021 3:29 pmPlease let us know when they respond and what they say.
