If you have my Plugin set, the Staff Set plugin is MUCH easier than
the Finale way, especially if you have a lot of staves.

Here's the instruction from the Tutorial:

Let’s say, for example, that you want to work just on the Violin I
and Viola lines; you want to hide the blank staves so Finale won’t
waste time redrawing them.

From the View Menu, choose Scroll View.
Click the Staff Tool
. First you’ll use the Staff Tool to tell Finale which staves you
want to see.
Click the handle of the Violin I staff. Then, while pressing
, click the handle of the Viola staff.
-clicking allows you to select several staves one at a time, even
if they’re not adjacent in the score.

That's not the way it works for me. Pressing Shift and selecting
non-continuous staves selects all the ones in between. Solution?
All the best,

For Mac it's the splat key (command, or Apple key). I have found a

Re: [Finale] Web site rennovation

Thanks for looking around and for the comments.

The music link on the nav bar should work. The problem is that the Logo 
is a default link to the home page and I have not yet seen how to 
disable it. It's so close to the nav bar that it's easy to click the 
logo instead of the nav bar.


You are the second person to suggest the drupal contact module so I'm 
looking into it. Thanks.

I use a great too called Synk to keep keep my Finale Files synced between my

http://www.decimus.net/synk_standard.php
I'm wondering if there is something similar that people use for Windows
machines? I have a friend in the same boat, who wants to keep his home and
studio finale files synced up. Ideally, when he plugs in the drive, it would
copy new/changed files.

Thanks in advance.


There is a free program called synctoy from miscrosoft. It does what you

Hi Kim,

Are you sure you're in the Staff Tool?  Shift clicking has selected only the
handles clicked on or drag selected for as long as I've been around the
program.
