[Finale] Changing Maestro Default file in Fin12
I am trying to replace the Maestro Default File in Finale 2012, but it appears to have an extension other than .mus (in MacOS). The problem is that the Hide Extension flag is set in get info and the os won't let me change it. What's is the extension for Maestro Default File now? Or should I just omit the extension? ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
[Finale] Using Document Styles in Finale 2012
Based on a post from Darcy in October, I am attempting to convert my work habits to using doc styles, but I am finding minor and major irritants. Minor irritant: When I use the setup wizard it does not take the Distance between Staves from the setting in my template. Instead it uses zero. Any way to fix this? Major show-stopping irritant: The setup wizard creates abbreviated names using the full name font size. This is basically a deal breaker for me. Is there any way to fix it? ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

Hi Robert, The first is surprising, but I have seen others mention it on the Finale Forum. If you Redefine pages (or Generate parts, in the case of linked parts) it apparently corrects itself. I don't know why it happens, but please report it to tech support so they can fix it. The second, I have noticed the full name font being used in other instances, too (such as instrument changes). This is a bug, but you can manually edit the font for abbreviated names from inside the Score Manager. Probably the Global Staff Attributes plugin can change them all at once, too. Again, please let MakeMusic know so they can correct it. Christopher ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
Re: [Finale] Changing Maestro Default file in Fin12
When I look at the info for my Maestro Default File, the Hide Extension flag is greyed-out, but not set: I think this means that the file simply doesn't have an extension. I'd try omitting the extension.

I haven't installed 2012 yet so forgive me if I am off base here. Assuming it is the same as 2011, default files do not contain file extension. They are controlled by type/creator which is FIN3. I think it is a left over from Finale v3 from 90's. Haha. By the way, regarding hide extension pref, I believe you need to engage it from Finder pref globally. My default files does not have hide extension bit engaged. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Greater Boston http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
