Re: [Finale] Those errant articulations
Here's how I do it: 1. Apply all the articulations, using the normal articulation def 2. If the articulations for cross-staff isn't good: JW Change-Articulations-Placement Style with the Connected Entries filter set to Cross Staff. The plug-in will create a new articulation def (after asking you first) with the other setting, if that articulation def isn't available in the document.

Re: [Finale] Those errant articulations
Dennis, Can’t you make a copy of the staccato dot articulation with a different position setting - one that will appear in the correct relationship to the note (always over, always under, note side, stem side - whatever gets the result you need)?

Here's one that's biting me right now. I have a cross-staff group of notes.

A staccato dot placed on the second eighth note defaults to below it, as Finale still thinks its in the bass clef. I need it above it. But if I drag it up, it moves down. Nudging it produces the same result -- totally misplaced. Is there a solution (or setting I've long missed) for this?

Dennis, You are correct that this is a long-standing bug and that it is still not fixed in Fin14. I usually work around the problem by creating a copy with positioning set to Manual.
