Hello! A new plug-in called "JW Staff Polyphony" is now available for download from the tips site. www.finaletips.nu
It's for Finale 2010 and later versions and it's a multi-purpose plug-in for tasks that are related to layers, chord lines and other kinds of music lines that appear throughout the score. (This plug-in replaces the old plug-ins "JW Merge Layers", "JW Explode Layers", "JW Quick Explode" and "JW Chord Manager". These plug-ins are now marked obsolete.) Version 1.00 contains the following tasks: LAYERS Copy - Copies the contents from one source layer to another destination layer. Move - Moves the contents from one source layer to another destination layer. Layer-assigned expression are moved to the destination layer. Swap - Swaps the contents between two layers. Hidden layers can't be swapped. Layer-assigned expressions are also swapped. Remove - Deletes the contents for the selected layers. Hidden layers are never removed. Layer-assigned expressions are also removed. Merge - Merges note layers with identical durations. Split - Splits notes in Layer 1 to multiple layers. Expression Merge - Transforms identical layer-assigned expressions (if found for all used layers) into one expression for all layers. STAVES Merge - Merges contents from multiple staves to one staff (according to a couple of different notation styles). Split - Distributes notes from chords on one staff to multiple staves. From Layers - Distributes layers to individual one-layered staves. To Layers - Merges one-layer staves into one staff with multiple layers. CHORD LINES Add - Adds lines of notes to chords or to single notes. Delete - Deletes a note line from chords. At least 2 notes must be available prior to removal. Drop - Drops a specific line one octave down. Keep - Keeps a specific note line while removing the other chord notes. Rotate - Rotates the chord by moving the top/bottom note an octave. A minimum of 2 notes is required for the chord to be rotated. Transpose - Transposes a specific note line or the full chord. Split Unisons - Splits unison intervals into octaves.
