Re: [Finale] KeyBug?
I can confirm both bugs with Mac Finale 2004. I've no idea why these problems occur: I can't make them happen with new files. A few things I noticed: - In the TimeBug file, if I add some measures, I can change the time signature of the new measures. If I then delete the first measure and insert a new first measure, I can also change the time signature of this measure. - The same with the KeyBug file: if I delete the first measure, then insert a measure at the beginning of the file, then turn on independent key signatures, the first measure stays in the same key as I would expect it to. - But here's another weird thing: if I add a new staff to the KeyBug file and turn on independent key signatures for this staff, its key signature changes to two flats. I trust you have sent these files to WinSupport: they are certainly corrupted. Best wishes, Michael Cook Can someone try this: Download http://www.yatesguitar.com/misc/KeyBug.MUS Open in Finale 2004b (Windows). (Note that the key signature is one sharp) Staff Attributes Tool Double click the staff handle Check 'Key Signature' under 'Independent Elements' OK The key signature for the first measure changes to two sharps.

I haven't been playing close attention to this thread, but I have WinFin2K3 and I have experienced a problem that is at least similar on a number of occasions. It manifests itself like this: 1. change a clef starting with a particular measure. 2. do some other things. 3. come back and try to change the clef in the first measure of the new clef, and doubleclicking has no effect -- nothing happens. Sorry to not be more specific, but I've grown so used to it that I don't really think about it. It's just another one of those things in recent versions of Finale that just no longer work reliably. -- David W.

Re: [Finale] KeyBug?
I don't think this is related, I think I know the bug you mean. I haven't quite worked out how to get out of that dilemma, but I somehow always managed to. This has to do with some clef options that are a little difficult to understand, I guess, and certainly something is buggy, but it doesn't actually corrupt the file in my experience.
