[Finale] WinFin on Surface Pro 3
Hello all, Has anyone been running Finale for Windows on the Surface Pro 3 tablet, and if so… how's that been going for you? Also, any prognostication on how Fin2014 would perform on the just-announced Surface 3 (non-pro)?

Re: [Finale] Does anybody think MM will ever fix the F2014 HP problems?
Hi all, I'm actually wondering whether anyone has any solutions to the fp problem in Fin2014, which is actually becoming a real problem for me. The Set Rhythmic Feel to 0% workaround is okay for the note-cutout problem, but the only solution I know to the almost-silent fp's is to put the notation in a layer set to not play back, then enter the music in a hidden layer with no fp's.

None of these things happened to me at 2012. Many people have had these problems, but the company seems to have no interest in correcting any bugs (or no ability to do so), even these high-impact, pervasive things. Anybody placing any odds on whether we will ever see any fixes at the 2014 level? ___ 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 unsubscribe from finale send a message to: finale-unsubscr...@shsu.edu
Re: [Finale] Finalescript 2012 vs. 2014 + Edit page offset
I had a follow-up question, if possible: is the script language the same in Finale 2012 and 2014? Can both programs read the same scripts? Btw, my OS is windows 7, 32b :) Thank you, jmmmp ___ 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

Cheers, On the finale forum, somebody discovered a reference to Finale 2014.5. That was an accidental release by MakeMusic, But to their credit, they did follow up with the posting repeated below. I believe Mr. Tschiggfrie accepts private messages at the forum. I suggest you ask him about fp, the scoops and falls, and the various other HP-related things. He may not be able to give a specific answer, but it is worth a try. At least we might find out if that is a priority. Surely it should be. I know many people are struggling with these playback bugs. Another HP thing that seems to be a bug introduced with 2014 is that volumes are all over the place sometimes. I have found that if you don't explicitly put a dynamic mark before and after each hairpin, you can't count on the playback. And even when you do that, some instruments seem to be much lower in the mix than others even though they all have the same mixer settings. = We recently published an updated version of the User Manual that unintentionally included the information described in this thread. As previously announced, our goal for Finale development going forward is to increase quality and improve user experience. Finale 2014.5, the next incremental update to Finale 2014, will continue our work toward modernizing Finale and improving its performance. We haven’t set a release date for the update, but already our development team has fixed numerous defects and are making use of the data collection we implemented in 2014d. I’ve rolled back the online user manual to remove the information. While the release isn’t quite ready yet, rest assured that we’re well on our way to making Finale better than ever.

Re: [Finale] Fwd: Finalescript 2012 vs. 2014 + Edit page offset
joão, you need to select the insert text (in your case page number) and paste the offset you want to add to the default. a 3rd-party script might be quicker and easier to manage, at least for this particular task. i have never had much luck with finalescript and gave up trying to understand the mysteries of its opaque being long ago. but you are more of a code geek than me, so maybe you have the patience and right type of brain circuits to be able to work with it :P as far as i know there are no fundamental differences in finalescript for F2012 or F2014. check your what's new in Finale 2014 file (PDF). -- NEW RELEASE!!! neueweise -- fonts for new music and traditional notation http://newmusicnotation.com/fonts shirling neueweise | http://newmusicnotation.com new music notation + translation + arts management [FB] http://facebook.com/neueweise | [TW] http://twitter.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] Fwd: Finalescript 2012 vs. 2014 + Edit page offset
Hello list, I had a couple of questions regarding finalescript: - I notice that in fin2012 there are lots of crashes, just when navigating the palette, but in fin2014 things seem to be ok. Is that your experience as well? - I was trying to write a plugin using the Edit Page Offset window. This plugin works from a previously selected text element. Using the commands text tool press ctrl shift T I get the edit frame attributes window for the selected element, as expected. But, running text tool menu item Text/Edit Page Offset I don't get the value for the selected element, but as if no element would be selected. So I would like to ask, is something wrong in the code, or does the Edit Page Offset function loses the selection hook, and other functions don't?
