Javier,

This is way cool! You should forward this over to Jari to put on his 
productivity tips site. I may just have to implement this...

Thanks for sharing!

Allen

Subject: Re: [Finale] Underscore


Hola, Dragos,

The solution is not to use the underscore sign at all.

Instead use the letter "I" (that´s an capital i) with Engraver font or a "b" in 
Tocatta font.

My procedure is first to enter a bogus character like "#" everytime I need an 
undertie. At the end I pass a little FinaleScript script to replace all the 
instances of "#" with the undertie sign. Then I re-space the music.

Look at the script below. (You can paste it into a new one).

//Search for the sign # in all the lyrics and replace it with the undertie 
Search lyrics "#" replace "I" [EngraverFontSet] 20 plain //End of script!

Is rather amazing that Finale provides no help for something that is needed in 
almost every vocal piece in Spanish, French, Italian and, probably, Romanian.

Saludos, Javier.
