Aaron is correct. Upgrades (the things we charge you money for every year) do not require you to have last year's version installed. Updates (those things that we stick on the site for you to download for free) only require that you have the current version on your machine. We also stopped

Hi Brian, I think you misunderstand what I was asking for. I know you can enclose a selection of notes and get the Apply Articulation box. I also know that you can use metatools to assign articulations by enclosing notes. I use this feature all the time. What I am suggesting is that you

Yeah, he has it and he's been using it for a few years now. I'm not sure exactly when he made the switch from manuscript to Finale, and I'm not sure how complete it is -- he may still do some scores by hand. But most of his recent compositions have Finale scores instead of manuscript scores.

I forgot to clarify a detail in my last message. When you turn *off* Smoothing in Sibelius 3, I think what is happening is that Sibelius *stops* using graphics card-assisted drawing and switches to the regular, CPU-based drawing used by Finale (and previous versions of Sibelius). That's why

Hi Brian, I understand that chords currently rely on key signatures as the basis for transposition settings. That's what needs to change! Otherwise, chords in pieces written without a key signature will never transpose correctly. It can't possibly be that difficult to fix this. If the

From: Ole Buck I guess I miss what you're after. If I enter a whole note in layer 1, and fill layer 2 in the same measure with hidden 16ths, the hidden 16th notes. With Affects Music Spacing checked for layer 2, the 16th notes have an effect on the spacing (no matter what kind of spacing I use).
