Hmm, I use Bill Duncan's Finale Productivity fonts, which contain parenthesised noteheads with and without sharps, flats and naturals, positioned automatically as articulations. Since I check the box in Music Spacing to take articulations into account, I get good spacing this way.

Grace notes will break if you ever use them in a linked, voiced part. It's an acknowledged bug, and not very far up on the list of things to fix, apparently.

Hi folks,

I wonder if there is some more elegant way of achieving "trill to" notes in Finale 2010? I have used the method described in older entries: place a grace note, move it to the right of the principal note, shorten the stem of the grace note (btw isn't there a way of removing the stem rather than shortening it if I want to create a stemless note?), place parenthesis as
articulations around it.

I also learned from the older entries that there is (or was?) a TG Tool
for this but I can't see that it shipped with Finale 2010. And if I
understood it correctly, the TG tool way of doing this suffered from the
same problem as when done manually: when executing a note spacing, the
position of the "trill to" note including the
parenthesis are reset to be to the left of the principal note. Very annoying.

Any idea of a more elegant and reliable way of doing this?

Thanks
