[Finale] New free rehearsal mark font for Fin2010
Hello! I've now uploaded a new font for the Fin2010 auto rehearsal mark feature to the Finale Productivity Tips site: http://www.finaletips.nu 4 versions of the brackets (just as the previous font I uploaded). This new font called JW Rehearsal Shadow 1 Bold. It's a clean sans serif font with a thin border enclosure + a subtle drop shadow. It's also available in a version called JW Rehearsal SCAPS 1 Bold, which is optimized to work great for upper case letters and digits. (This version of the font doesn't work well for lower case rehearsal marks.) Enjoy! Best regards, Jari Williamsson ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

Re: [Finale] Re: Duplicating linked parts for similar instruments
Are these parts still linked to the original score, or are they separate files now? I haven't used linked parts in a large ensemble, so I'm curious how people are getting the results they want.

Re: [Finale] Re: Duplicating linked parts for similar instruments
Yes, all it does is make the number of measures in each system the same from one part to another. It isn't exactly the same as the old technique of copying the contents of horn 2 into the horn 1 part, then saving under a new name, because you don't get all the nudges and things you did to the horn 1 in the horn 2 part. But it saves you having to re-jig titles, and some items can be moved so that they get nudged in ALL parts at the same time, so it is a net savings in time as far as I am concerned.

Re: [Finale] Re: Duplicating linked parts for similar instruments
They are still linked to the original score. Tobias' plugin does nothing to extract them, or unlink them in any way. It only copies the layout from a part you have worked on and sets up another part the same way - the same measure layout, distances between systems, etc. This is a convenience when dealing with parts that contain similar music. Even when there are some differences from part to part, starting with a generally good layout, copied from another part, can save a good deal of time.

Re: [Finale] Re: Duplicating linked parts for similar instruments
Thanks for the clarification. I guess my question wasn't clear. For parts that share a staff in the score, for example Horns 1 2, can you create a part for horn 1 and a separate part for horn 2 and have them both be linked?

Re: [Finale] Re: Duplicating linked parts for similar instruments
The best kludge for linked, voiced parts with grace notes in them is to have a different copy of the file with the default grace note spacing changed just for those parts. All the other parts (non- voiced, or those without grace notes) can still reside in the same file with the score.
