My point is that Finale only allows a range of notes. If you start on beat 1 and end on beat 3, beat 2 is included. Sibelius allows you to select beat 1 and beat 3 without selecting beat 2. This is a useful feature.
But David, the point Tyler and I have been trying to make is that once you've selected beat 1 and beat 3 in Sib, the articulation *still* has not been applied. So even though Finale doesn't have non-contiguous selection, it doesn't matter since applying an articulation is *exactly as fast* as simply selecting the notes.
Here are the steps in Sib. 1) Drag-enclose to select Beat 1. 2) Shift-drag-enclose to select Beat 3. 3) Apply the articulation. Here are the steps in Finale: 1) Drag-enclose Beat 1 while holding a metatool. 2) Drag-enclose Beat 3 without letting go of the metatool. - Darcy ----- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brooklyn, NY _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
