Jim, with all due respect - it would be nice if MakeMusic showed that much interest when it comes to fixing publishing shortcomings within Finale, not just playback related issues.
There are still major errors within the program that have not been dealt with over many, many years and many, many versions of Finale. I'm sure others can provide long lists, but just a quick for instance: what about the fact that it still needs a major work-around to be able to show key cancellations in only a few staves - to clarify: key cancellations are shown when going from more sharps/flats to less going from sharps to flats (or vice versa) does NOT get any cancellations in an orchestra score with lots of transposing instruments one is often confronted with both scenarios after years of staff styles, to my knowledge there still isn't a solution available to help with the above situation. One has to hide key signatures in certain staves and place sharps/flats as expressions into the score and then be super careful in the part stage to deal with that work-around, especially at line breaks. Thanks - going back into my hole now, Thomas Schaller On Oct 23, 2012, at 9:43 AM, Bruce, Jim wrote: > Hello All, > We are here to help with these types of problem.
