Re: [Finale] Bizarre behaviour of 2014 measure tool

2015-01-17 Thread Bruce Kau
You may be right about the right-click. I don't see any way of bringing 
it up.

But try this: left-click (to select the measure), Alt-E (bring up edit 
menu), Alt-I (letter eye to insert measure stack).

 Hello again,

 There doesn't seem to be any logic in the way the Windows Finale 2014
 Meausre tool works. :(

 Users need to keep their wits about them when exploring it.

 I'm an enthusiast for doing every possible thing with key strokes from
 the qwerty keyboard as I touch-type very fast. The additional menu that
 comes up when I R-click on a measure handle has about 20 items and no
 letters underlined to show how to get to the next layer. What I wanted
 to do today was Insert Measure Stack. I tried hitting each letter of
 that phrase in turn, and got some quite alarming results, including
 clear all items from the selected measure.

 I have to assume that there isn't a letter possibility, unless someone
 can tell me differently

 Greetings from England,

 Patsy

One other thought: Sometimes what is easier is to type your text into a 
word processor such as MS Word, and then copy the text into Finale. 
Finale has pretty awful text processing, and you can take advantage of 
some of the features that various text processors have for inserting 
special character sets.

 NEUEWEISE -- FONTS FOR NEW MUSIC AND TRADITIONAL NOTATION

 Designed to respond to the diverse needs of New
 Music notation, the neueweise font family
 enhances the look of any score. The Notes,
 Articulations and Pitches fonts can also add a
 modern touch of elegance to your Classical music
 score.

 Character charts and examples using neueweise fonts can be found on this
 page:
 http://newmusicnotation.com/fonts.html


 SET 1: The Basics

 Notes -- Noteheads common to New Music, as well
 as rests, and straight and angled flags.

 Articulations -- A range of articulations, bow
 markings, fermati, tremolos with 1-5 bars,
 fingernail, guitar pick, slap tongue, Bartók
 pizz. and more.

 Pitches -- Standard accidentals and quarter tones
 (flats and sharps), as well as inflected versions
 (arrows up/down) and smaller versions with
 brackets; also round and square brackets for use
 with notes and accidentals.


 Use and Design

 Although neueweise fonts were designed
 specifically for New Music, they work perfectly
 for traditional notation as well. Some notable
 features of the font set:

 - Accidentals contains quarter tones and
 inflected (arrow up/down) quarter tones;
 - Inflected accidentals are legible even in reduced size scores;
 - Narrower width of some characters saves
 horizontal real estate in the score;
 - Unified width of many noteheads ensures
 consistent appearance using alternate noteheads;
 - A bold and stylish design will make your work
 stand out, musicians love your scores.


 Finale Users

 Font Annotation files (FANs) are included for
 each font. A stem connection library is included
 with Notes; an articulation library is included
 with Articulations.

But can anyone tell me where on the internet I can find instructions for

For example, the second instruction given (after close finale) is to

But there is no file below anything.  Nothing to download.

  I assume you have a IPA font already, such as the ones at SIL.ORG, e.g.,

  I think Windows fonts have the SIL codepoint (just checked; Arial does
  have unicode IPA). I'm not sure about Mac, but I don't know why they
  wouldn't.
  You didn't mention Windows or Mac. The SIL fonts have the IPA characters
  at the IPA code point, as well as newer builtin fonts.
 
  That said, probably the easiest way to do this is to have a keyboard
  mapping tool, if you're going to do this a lot. I don't use these
  characters much, but I do use other unicode characters a bit. The website
  http://www.phon.ucl.ac.uk/home/wells/ipa-unicode.htm
  appears to have some helpful tips (not finale-related) that may help as
  well.
 
  Don't know if that's what you're looking for, but hope this helps.

  NEUEWEISE -- FONTS FOR NEW MUSIC AND TRADITIONAL NOTATION
 
  Designed to respond to the diverse needs of New
  Music notation, the neueweise font family
  enhances the look of any score. The Notes,
  Articulations and Pitches fonts can also add a
  modern touch of elegance to your Classical music
  score.
 
  Character charts and examples using neueweise fonts can be found on
 this
  page:
  http://newmusicnotation.com/fonts.html
 
 
  SET 1: The Basics
 
  Notes -- Noteheads common to New Music, as well
  as rests, and straight and angled flags.
 
  Articulations -- A range of articulations, bow
  markings, fermati, tremolos with 1-5 bars,
  fingernail, guitar pick, slap tongue, Bartók
  pizz. and more.
 
  Pitches -- Standard accidentals and quarter tones
  (flats and sharps), as well as inflected versions
  (arrows up/down) and smaller versions with
  brackets; also round and square brackets for use
  with notes and accidentals.
 
 
  Use and Design
 
  Although neueweise fonts were designed
  specifically for New Music, they work perfectly
  for traditional notation as well. Some notable
  features of the font set:
 
  - Accidentals contains quarter tones and
  inflected (arrow up/down) quarter tones;
  - Inflected accidentals are legible even in reduced size scores;
  - Narrower width of some characters saves
  horizontal real estate in the score;
  - Unified width of many noteheads ensures
  consistent appearance using alternate noteheads;
  - A bold and stylish design will make your work
  stand out, musicians love your scores.
 
 
  Finale Users
 
  Font Annotation files (FANs) are included for
  each font. A stem connection library is included
  with Notes; an articulation library is included
  with Articulations.

 One other thought: Sometimes what is easier is to type your text into a
 word processor such as MS Word, and then copy the text into Finale.
 Finale has pretty awful text processing, and you can take advantage of
 some of the features that various text processors have for inserting
 special character sets.

Re: [Finale] Garritan fin mac 14

2015-01-17 Thread Klaus Smedegaard Bjerre
When buying a Garritan product your personal authorisation has the form of 
picture that you download after creating it on the MM website. Then you drag 
the application icon on top of that photo or maybe the other way round. I have 
not seen this procedure in other contexts. It works and hasn't to be redone 
unless you reformat your disk or get a new computer. That is why I forgot the 
exact details.

 For example, the second instruction given (after close finale) is to

[Finale] Phantom playback notes

2015-01-17 Thread John Witmer
How do you clear phantom playback notes. When playing back a short
experiment, I hear phantom notes. That is notes are played that are
not in the current score.
I presume they are leftovers from previous note selections, 
but they have nothing to do with the current chart.

Re: [Finale] Phantom playback notes

2015-01-17 Thread Jan Angermüller
John,

I haven't noticed phantom playback notes yet,
but I very often have hanging notes:
notes that didn't receive the note off signal.
It's a confirmed bug in human playback.

If these phantom notes always appear at the same position
in the score and you can't get rid of the, it may help to add
all notes off-text expressions in these measures.
Just define an empty text expression with playback set to:
Type: Controller:  123  (Other then appears in the right drop down menu)
Set to value: 0

I simply turned off Finale and started it again, and low and behold, no phantom

Old solution to many problems works again.

[Finale] Bizarre behaviour of 2014 measure tool

2015-01-17 Thread Patsy Moore
Hello again,

There doesn't seem to be any logic in the way the Windows Finale 2014 
Meausre tool works. :(

Users need to keep their wits about them when exploring it.

I'm an enthusiast for doing every possible thing with key strokes from 
the qwerty keyboard as I touch-type very fast. The additional menu that 
comes up when I R-click on a measure handle has about 20 items and no 
letters underlined to show how to get to the next layer. What I wanted 
to do today was Insert Measure Stack. I tried hitting each letter of 
that phrase in turn, and got some quite alarming results, including 
clear all items from the selected measure.

I have to assume that there isn't a letter possibility, unless someone 
can tell me differently

Greetings from England,

Patsy
