I believe this has been in place since Fin2007. And if you have an Apple mouse with a scroll wheel, you can just roll it horizontally to get a horizontal scroll (no shift key needed). Or, on a laptop's trackpad, you can use a two-finger swipe to get a horizontal scroll.

You can adjust the scroll wheel sensitivity to get a one-measure-at-a- time horizontal scroll in scroll view, which is what I prefer.

Finale has a horizontal scroll, at least FinMac 2009a does. Holding down the shift key and rolling the scroll wheel advances you horizontally in the score. In scroll view, approximately 3 measures at a time, and less than that in page view. This is great for those moments when you don't need a full page ahead or back.

Man, what you don't catch up on when you aren't paying attention to updates...

(BTW, another minor annoyance in 2009. When adding accents to the Rhythmic Notation, they go UNDERNEATH by default, instead of above as the stem direction might indicate and as they have in previous versions. I can always drag them, but just the same...)
