Re: [Finale] Enharmonic key signature?
Got it — I did try it as a new staff style, so I could still use JD’s solution but apply it only to that part of the score that was in E Major.

Re: [Finale] Enharmonic key signature?
Thanks, JD — that worked! Unfortunately, though, the E Major section is later in the piece, and these settings caused earlier key signatures to display double-flats and all sorts of nonsense! Do you (or does anyone else) know if I can change it for just this E Major section? I think that’s something I can do with a staff style, but I tend to be really bad at staff styles. — Mike > On Jan 29, 2019, at 12:38 PM, j...@thomastudios.com wrote: > > I got this to work correctly, but it’s way convoluted.

Re: [Finale] Enharmonic key signature?
I got this to work correctly, but it’s way convoluted. In the staff transposition dialog, from Score Manager, change the staff transposition to Other, uncheck Simplify Key, put 9 in the interval field and -10 in the key alter field. Leave it in treble obviously. I did this just now in Finale 25 and I got the proper transposition. In reading the online manual for this dialog, the part pertaining to the interval and key alter, I got a headache. So I had another cup of coffee and moved on. Whew!! This should be easier (and maybe it is). *** J D Thomas ThomaStudios > On Jan 29, 2019, at 8:56 AM, Michael Meyer wrote: > > Hi all — > > I thought I knew how to do this, but it’s not working.

[Finale] Enharmonic key signature?
Hi all — I thought I knew how to do this, but it’s not working. FinMac26. Concert key is E Major. Have a tenor sax part that displays F# Major, but I need it to display Gb Major instead. I thought I did this in ScoreManager for the instrument’s Transposition, either by checking or un-checking the box for “Simplify Key” — but doing that hasn’t changed the displayed key signature from F# Major. Am I doing it wrong? Is it actually something/somewhere else? Thanks for any help. — Mike ___ 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] Enharmonic Key Signature
Greetings… Working on something with E Major key signature and Clarinets in B-flat. The Clarinets naturally appear with a key signature of F# Major. I'd like their parts to be in Gb Major instead. How can I make that change? Thanks… Neal Gittleman ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
