[Finale] Program Function Keys on Mac
Just a quick follow-up in case it's helpful to other folks. Downloaded Keyboard Maestro for $36, and it worked perfectly. Programmed F1 - F4 as layers 1 - 4, F5 to favor sharps in enharmonic spelling and F6 to favor flats. Then programmed F7 as Speedy Entry, F8 as dynamics, F9 SmartShape, F10 articulation, F11 as lyrics and F12 text. I think it'll significantly increase productivity.

Re: [Finale] Program Function Keys on Mac
Thanks, guys. Yes, I think I can figure out how to use the built in macro functions, but I checked out Keyboard Maestro, and that looks great - just what I need. Much appreciated.

Re: [Finale] Program Function Keys on Mac
Layers are built into Finale now. Opt-cmd 1 is layer 1 (you can do it with your thumb sideways and your index) then 2, 3, and 4 are predictable enough… I use System Preferences>Keyboard>Shortcuts… App Shortcuts to make certain F keys into preferences. No 3rd party required. Make sure you spell the menu item properly, with caps and spaces exactly as is. Christopher > On Wed Nov 16, at WednesdayNov 16 3:40 PM, Michael Dutka >wrote: > > Hi folks.

[Finale] Program Function Keys on Mac
Hi folks. Running 2010 on a MacBook Pro whose hard drive just died and had to be replaced (recovering my data, thank all that's holy). When I bought it originally, I asked the technician to set up function keys such that F1 - F4 were layers 1 - 4, F5 set preference for sharps and F6 for flats. I_think he used a 3rd party program but I'm not 100% sure. Obviously, with the hard drive replaced, I assume these functions are gone. Do you other folks have similar setups? How did you create them - through a 3rd party program, and if so, which one?
