Dear collective wisdom,
Is it really true that smart shape horizontal adjustment in the parts
(to shorten a hairpin, for example) MUST always be linked to the
score? That is, a hairpin crescendo under a half note in the part
(which is fairly short) MUST be the same length as that same hairpin
in the score (where that half note could be holding against 16th notes
in another part, and would, therefore, need to be much longer)?
I can't believe this is by design. Is it programming laziness? Or
some quirk of the program that is impossible to get around?
I know that I can get around it by having a score file and a parts
file -- and by adjusting nearly every hairpin in the parts. If this
is a "feature" of Finale, it is both stupid and sad.
