Well, as you know, Finale has not been able to correctly export PS and EPS
files for many years, if ever.
[Windows] I have used the PS export function with great success in the past
and have also used the EPS import function
When you change the first note of the second triplet to be the quarter
note, you don't delete it, you simply put the cursor on the 8th note you
entered to define the triplet and hit the 5 key to change it to a
quarter note.
Keystrokes should be:
ctrl-3, 4, 4, cursor left 2 times so it is on
Move the notes from the layers other than 1 to new staves by creating
the staves, choosing SHOW ACTIVE LAYER ONLY, switching to layer 2, 3, or
4 and then highlighting and dragging that music to one of the new staves
and erasing it from it's original staff. Repeat it for all the music
you want
It's on your computer, or if you chose not to install it, it's on your
installation CD.

Yes, That would work. I didn't think about that. Thanks.
It sure seems like there ought to be an easier way to do this
function. It would sure be nice if the move/copy layers function could
become move, copy, or merge layers.

Nope.
This is a system-wide key for firing up context sensitive help (hit F1 in any
other program and chances are pretty good you'll get help, too). F6 and F10 are
also reserved, but I don't think are used nearly as wide-spread as
F1.

Sometimes I don't pay attention to the actual numbers of the F keys,
and assign them in groups. They are grouped in fours on most
keyboards, so any group of 4 can be the four layers.
Are you giving up the ability to use the F keys for tool selection? I

What's the site for the online manual, again?
I have no problem entering triplets on the fourth beat, in either speedy
or simple entry, although in simple entry when I enter the first
8th-note of the triplet it fills the beat with 2 8th-rests. I turn the
second 8th-rest to a note by clicking on it just as I did the first one,
but when I

It means that to me too. Finale shouldn't be confusing online with

I'm not sure. There are two with similar names: Pamela Z and Pamela Zero.
Both do vocal work, extended voice.
I'm working on a piece in which the woodwinds have independent time
signatures. The piece is in 3/4, the woods change to 9/8. These 9/8 time
signatures do NOT transfer into the parts, not even when I turn off
independent time signatures before extracting. I'm even unable to change
