Hello,

a strange one. I'm working on a chart for guitar with non-standard tuning - Low to High goes - D-G-D-G-B-E
The tune is Eric Satie's Gymnopedaies.
When I use a 6 line staff as a TAB, everything is fine, when I use a normal 5 line staff with the notes and try to add fretboard guides using the chord tool the following happens.
As I edit the fretboards to take into account the non-standard tuning, FINALE seems partial to changing previously entered fretboards to something else, so that when I finish the last in the piece, many of the earlier entered ones are wrong (changed)
I will try to attach the .musx and .pdf files.
Sorry - won't allow .musx or .pdf files.
(Wonder what I can upload?
Oh well.................

Indeed that sounds really weird - and not easy to explain.

OK - that was about MY opinion too.
As long as someone's working on it.
