Re: [Finale] Fixing Tie Ends

[Robert Patterson]

Tie Mover can adjust your tie ends up/down, as well as extending them so 
that they aren't so squashed. However, it will not move the notes. There 
are countless permutations of settings in Finale that can address the 
problem. You could increase the space from the start of music. I believe 
Fin05 has additional options along these lines from previous versions. 
You can also twiddle the tie options, which I recommend as a first step. 
Johannes Gebauer has a website showing his settings that are quite nice. 
(A google search will turn it up if he doesn't let us know himself.)

I'm running Finale 2005 on a Windows XP machine. Many of the "tie ends" 
look ugly. I'm referring to the right-hand side of a tie that crosses a 
system boundary. Often, all you get for the tie end is a little squiggle 
that's only barely visible.

It's possible to fix this by moving the notes manually every time, but 
is there a better solution, such as a global setting or a plug-in? I've 
experimented with Robert Patterson's tie mover, but I haven't found the 
settings that fix this problem.
