Hello Finale;
I have found that when using the "explode music" feature, even
though the articulations are in the right place BEFORE the music is
exploded, they come out funny in the parts AFTER the chords are
exploded.
I was wondering if there is a way for ALL articulations of a certain
type to be forced either ABOVE the staff or below the staff, rather
than hand editiong them, which can be really tedious. The way it
comes out now, they are mixed above and below. Maybe it has to do
with positioning of the note heads relative to the staff, i.e. stem
up or sten down.
Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places, but the documentation has not
yielded any tricks to me as yet..
Switch to the Articulation tool and then double click on any note.
Or if the handle of the articulation is selected, just hit Return to
open the edit dialogue box for that articulation.
The selection dialog opens up. Click (single-click, not double-click)
on whichever articulation you want to edit and then click the EDIT
button. In the ensuing dialog you can edit where it will appear and
how it will appear.
David has it right, and furthermore, if you perform this edit on your
default file and save it (on Windows save as a template!) then you
will never have to remember to do this again.
