Thanks. I've been trying to figure out how to export a seletion from Finale as a TIFF in the Graphics Tool (in page view). But what happens is I use the selection tool to select one or more measures, then as soon as I go to Tools>Advanced Tools>Graphics Tool my selection dissapears! (and therefore the Export Selection command is disabled). The only thing I've been able to do is use the Export Page command.
