Hi, Michael - I'm glad to hear that Finale will continue to be improved & tweaked. I'll reiterate what has been expressed by many in this forum often over the years: we would love a release that just fixes bugs. The last several releases have seen a number of users who feel forced to move to a previous release due to new bugs introduced with the lastest version.
Here's a few of my bugs, and a few wishes as well: Chords become unchecked in the filter. Articulation macro doesn't always work. Selection tool is buggy. Shift-click doesn't always encompass selection. In Speedy entry, can't always select the last note in the frame. Spacebar-click doesn't always start playback. Finale must be restarted to enable playback. In JazzFont, the augmentation dot on a dotted-eighth rest is spaced too far to the right. Finale 2014 shuts down for no apparent reason. Finale 2014 shuts down randomly when I use Transcribe! software. There are a few Jazzfont characters which need reworking (eg, the Z looks like a 2). (I contacted Customer Support re: the shutdown issues, but nothing they suggested worked.) Aria loading is painfully slow. Not a bug, but. . . Edit toolbar should be available (Save, Do/Undo, Print, etc). I REALLY miss this! "Open most recent document" should be an option for startup action. It would be nice to have user-defined text inserts. Adjust Jazzfont Chord Symbols to conform with Roemer-Brandt styling. There are others who more serious issues than mine - I hope you all will chime in! I love the linked parts - that's been my favorite upgrade feature of recent releases.
