That seems to depend on the power (and RAM?) of your Mac. I don't see
any difference in speed on mine.
The OS X-related announcement does sound like they fixed some problems
with Finale in Classic mode under OS X, although no details are given.
Thank you very much for producing this review! I ordered my upgrade the
instant I read the notice, and your review has not made me sorry I did
so! In fact, it made me more eager to get it -- it seems some real
productivity enhancements have been included.
Now, if only what seem to be

Hi folks,
Here's the problem:
Bartok's Concerto for Orchestra, 1st movement, 1st clarinet part, 3/8
time, measure 192: quarter-8th, measure 193: 8th-quarter. The two 8ths
are beamed together (across the barline) and tied. I can't seem to find
a way to do that in Finale. Any suggestions?

This is not directly supported. Two workarounds are possible:
The simplest works only if the barline is in mid-system. That is to
place the tied-to note in the preceding bar and drag into alignment with
the pos.
I recently took advantage of Coda's amnesty offer and upgraded from
Finale 3.7 to Finale 2002 for Mac. I love all the changes since 3.7, but
I have three questions:

I don't think there is any one best size. It depends on the music and
what your goals are.
That said, 83.33% (ie, five-sixths) is fairly standard for classical piano.

Actually the broken circle indicated simply duple meter (either 2 or 4)

Well, that's almost it ...
