Hello, I have exchanged a few emails with Mac Support about speed problems in FinMac 2004.
My complaints have to do with the miserable hesitation when editing SmartShapes or when editing using Special Tools. Their suggestion was that I turn off auto smart word extensions in lyrics, turn off auto spacing and auto update, turn off human playback (or set it to quicktime instruments), and lower screen resolution and number of colors. None of these worked -- I always work with spacing and update off, I don't care much about playback, and I'm not now working with lyrics. I tried lowering resolution, but it made no difference. Who knew being "smart" also means being slow? Any proposals for renaming these "smart" items? I'm posting for two reasons. First of all, those of you who are having worse speed problems than me or are working with lyrics might try their suggestions. Second, I wanted to share the last response I got from Mac Support: > The problem with editing SmartShapes and with the Special Tools are documented > and we are looking into them. I will keep your information handy. If I have an > update on this or hear about steps that could help, I will share them with > you. > > Thank you for your feedback. > > Thierry > Technical Support Representative > MakeMusic!, Inc. > Coda Music Technologies David Froom _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
