That would be nice, but would have cost too much money and required that 
some long-time developers still be on the staff, people who had been 
working on the program when those older terms were used, so they could 
relate to the difficulties people have had in finding the new terms.

Also wonderful to have would be a "Old menu placement - New menu 
placement" chart which reflected all the changes in the menu structure 
that happened back around Finale 2010 or so (I may not be remembering 
the actual version number -- it might have been earlier than that).

Obviously new users aren't affected by changes (except when they consult 
older users who haven't gotten the new terms and menu placements 
mastered yet) but it would be nice to have the 
old-to-new-conversion-charts-and-lists for us long-time users.

Still, I just muddle through searching all the menus until I find what I 
want.
