Re: [Finale] Chord question

2016-07-28 Thread Christopher Smith
I might use G69/B, which IS in the Finale suffixes.

Or you might need to create it from zero, as others have suggested. The chord 
suffix editor is frustrating as all get out, though. Good luck.

I don't think any voicing would produce Bm11(b6)   You need to type it the way 
you want it and then  create a chord suffix when asked to. Or create it first.

Re: [Finale] Chord question

Raphael poses a good question as to exactly what notes you’re using.

But, if you absolutely need that chord symbol, you’re going to have to create 
the chord suffix yourself.  It’s not really a standard chord symbol and it 
doesn’t exist in any Finale suffix library.

Which notes do you exactly mean? Is the chord with a 7th or is it add11?

Re: [Finale] Spacing issue for dotted rest

2016-07-28 Thread Jan Angermüller
There are other known spacing issues with the Jazz font as well. For 
example the symbols 67 and 99 ("common/cut time with bracket") have the 
same advance width as the symbols without brackets (68/100) although 
they are twice as wide. So when using the 67/99 symbols you might run 
into note collisions that don't show up when using 68/100.

If you're looking for the JazzText Extended font with a working è, you 
could also try the free installation of OnlineSheetMusic viewer ( 
http://www.onlinesheetmusic.com/download.aspx ). When I downloaded it a 
few months ago, all jazz fonts were installed- and the è was available. 
But be careful: it might overwrite the existing jazz font installations.

In old versions of Finale, the rests show dots correctly. This broke 
approximately at the same time that linked parts were introduced. I complained 
immediately, and was told to move them all with the Special Tool.

They are blowing smoke if they claim that this is working as designed. It was 
acknowledged when I first reported it, then complained a couple years later 
that it still wasn’t fixed. They broke it, either inside Finale or with changes 
they made to the JazzFont (they removed è, that’s an e with an accent grave, at 
the same time.)
