Re: [Finale] Properly Showing Clef Time and Key in any Measure
Thank you Klaus, this solution looks interesting to, I'll be trying today. It's weird though that Finale can't properly handle all this.

Re: [Finale] Properly Showing Clef Time and Key in any Measure
I think the easiest way might be to create a blank measure after each clef indication, use Blank Notation staff style (to hide the default rest) and hide the barline. Then make the measure width zero. This would put a clef BEFORE the key signature, which would be in the second of the two measures. Measure numbering would be off by a factor of 2, but I would bet that you are creating an exercise sheet or example page, so that probably won't matter.

The difficulty is if you also want the time signature and key signature to display -- then for some unknown reason Finale puts the clef sign following the Key and Time signatures, instead of before them. And I can't see an easy way around that, unless you do what Klaus has suggested and add extra space and place the clef as an expression. -- David H.

Re: [Finale] Properly Showing Clef Time and Key in any Measure
As sort of a courtesy clef indication? Never tried that before, but I might imagine the road I would suggest: In the online help facility find the keyboard equivalent for the bass clef in your given music font, and create the bass clef as an expression. By means of TGTools create space before the first note of the measure. Place the bass clef expression manually at the beginning of the given measure.

Re: [Finale] Properly Showing Clef Time and Key in any Measure
Thank you Klaus. My problem si slightly different while I don't have to specify a new clef but just show up the existing one. In this case the clef appears after the time and key signature.

Re: [Finale] Properly Showing Clef Time and Key in any Measure
Go to the Clef Tool (symbol is Bass Clef) Select the passage that needs a new clef - may be partial or full measures or combinations of full and partial measures Right click the selected passage and click Select clef The Clef Tool window comes up, where you may click the desired key Please note that the number or letter in the brackets are the keyboard shortcuts for the given clef.

[Finale] Properly Showing Clef Time and Key in any Measure
Is there anyway to show a clef in a measure different from the first one, with the key and time signatures also showing as if the measure was the very first one? If I'd want to show in each measure its clef, key signature and time signature how would I accomplish it? When I try to do so I can get the key and time signature showing up through the measure attributes dialog box but the only way I can think to get the clef showing is by opening the change clef dialog box, select the clef, chose "always show clef", resize it at 100% and tick the "Place Clef After Barline" checkbox. Whatsoever, in this way, the clef appears after the key and the time signatures and not as the first item, as where it should be. Any hint would be warmly appreciated!
