[Finale] Tool Bar (customization) - reply
In reply to: Re: MacFin2007c How can I get my Tool Bar to retain the order of tools that I wish? I know how to change the placement of each tool (Command-Shift), and as long as I have Finale open it stays. I have tried Special Save/Save Preferences and everything else I can think of, but the next time I open the program, the Tool Bar is back to it's original order. I have had to contend with this in every recent version, but this version doesn't seem to yield a solution. Any ideas? All the best, KIM R -- select View/Customize Palettes/ then choose whichever toolbar you want to modify, or continue to View/Customize Palettes/Toolbars and do the same thing. The icons you are already using are on the right. You can add or subtract by clicking on whatever icon you want. Hope this helps. Marilyn __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Actually, on Mac, you need to use Program Tool Set (look it up).

Re: [Finale] TOOL BAR
Kim, Read my last message. PROGRAM. TOOL. SET. (Then save prefs.) This is what you want. Search the help files for details. - Darcy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brooklyn, NY On 20 Oct 2004, at 06:40 PM, Kim Richmond wrote: Dear Listers, This is driving me nuts, and I have been hassling with this all through 2004, and now the same thing is true of 2005 version of MacFin.

I like the tools in a certain order, and change them to what I want by dragging them to their preferred positions while hold down Shift/Control. Nothing I do will retain the way I configure it when I restart Finale and reopen a file. Extenuating circumstances: I can get a single strip only if I switch to Classic palette. That will stay and appear the next time I open Finale. But the preferred position order will not. If, before I close the file, I change back to Contemporary palette, it will not stay there and the order will be back to a default setting. Also, I have always been important to Save the file and also, under Edit/Save Special, do Save Prefs. To no avail. Any solutions come to mind?

Re: [Finale] TOOL BAR
Hi Kim, Darcy is right. I just tried it and it works great. Get your toolbar set up the way you want it. Hold down the option key and go to ViewProgram Tool SetToolset 1. Now go back to the view menu without holding option down and choose Select Toolset Toolset 1. Then, as Darcy said, save your prefs. Your programmed toolset should come up and stay after you quit and restart Finale. Thanks Darcy. I have used Program and Select staff set before but never this. -K Kim, Read my last message. PROGRAM.

Have you tried deleting the Finale Preferences file ... ~/Library/Preferemces/Finale 2004 Preferences ... not sure about 2005 but would guess it's at ... ~/Library/Preferemces/Finale 2005 Preferences ... maybe the file has become corrupted.
