Re: [Finale] Hey! Where did the edit system margins box go?

2006-06-09 Thread Michael Cook
I can see the edit system margins box, but I note the following  
behaviour: when I choose it in the menu, it flashes briefly at what  
is presumably a default position before appearing where I had placed  
it the last time I used it. So a possible explanation of your problem  
is that this box has somehow been moved right off the screen. Two  
things you could try:


1. If it's possible to set your screen to a higher resolution, do it  
and see if the box appears.
2. If this isn't possible, or doesn't help, try trashing or re-naming  
the Finale 2006 Preferences file (in User/Library/Preferences).  
Finale will create a new one when you re-launch it.


Best wishes,

Michael Cook

There is no problem with the edit page margins box.

Can anyone else confirm this bug?

Thanks.

Thanks Michael. The second solution worked for me. Unfortunately I 
now have to recreate all my preferences. Oh well...

I just found another solution related to your first suggestion. I use 
2 monitors and so instead of having them arranged in the software as 
being side to side, I placed the second monitor underneath the first 
in the display preferences. Sure enough, way down at the bottom of 
the second monitor was the missing edit system margins box.
