Uh, I think my comment "wish that Sibelius were decent" rather takes care of your point. And my complaint has nothing whatsoever to do with clip files, which as you'll note if you review the post you are responding to, was not mentioned at all (that was two weeks ago, and I gave up on that completely after figuring out how to use Robert Patterson's Mass Copy plugin). No, this is basic copying functionality, drag and drop from on location to another, and its defaults for (not) copying clefs are, in my opinon, completely screwed up. And fixing that causes me to run into a clef bug. I don't intend to move to Sibelius, but it infuriates me when I run into such ridiculous problems with basic functionality in Finale. After all these years, it shouldn't still have such major design flaws and bugs. -- David W.
