Re: [Finale] Bizarre behaviour of 2014 measure tool
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).

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.

Re: [Finale] [RELEASE] neueweise - fonts for new music / traditional notation
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.

Thanks, I will check out these links, I need to use the IPA Syllables instead of alpha-letters and I forgot to mention I am using Windows version of Finale 2012. In all the explanations I have seen, it seemed one almost needed programming skills to get the IPA syllables in Finale to be entered as lyrics.

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.

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. -- shirling neueweise new music notation + translation + arts management mailto:shirl...@newmusicnotation.com http://newmusicnotation.com | http://www.facebook.com/neueweise ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu https://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale To unsubscribe from finale send a message to: finale-unsubscr...@shsu.edu ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu https://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale To
Re: [Finale] Garritan fin mac 14
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.

But can anyone tell me where on the internet I can find instructions for activating the instruments. I am totally baffled. On the MakeMuisc (Finale) web site I found a set of instructions that are incomprehensible. For example, the second instruction given (after close finale) is to download the file (below) and... But there is no file below anything. Nothing to download. I need a bigger boat.

[Finale] Phantom playback notes
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
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 Jan Am 17.01.2015 um 13:58 schrieb John Witmer: How do you clear phantom playback notes.

Re: [Finale] Phantom playback notes
Problem solved. I simply turned off Finale and started it again, and low and behold, no phantom notes. Old solution to many problems works again.

[Finale] Bizarre behaviour of 2014 measure tool
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 -- Patsy Moore pa...@mooremusic.org.uk www.da-capo.org.uk ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu https://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale To unsubscribe from finale send a message to: finale-unsubscr...@shsu.edu
