Actually, I don't see it as the opposite at all, since I'm approaching it from a programmer's point of view. I see it as a problem with the handling of MouseUp and MouseDown events in the page navigation widgets.

It seems there is something wrong with the widgets Finale uses for page navigation, and my assumption is that MakeMusic does not maintain completely independent codebases for components like that (there may be a layer that is OS-specific, but it would be very complicated to maintain two completely different versions of those widgets). I use widgets of this kind and size that do the same thing in lots of other applications, and never have this kind of problem with them, so it's not a problem inherent to my mousing capability -- it's something about Finale's implementation. -- David W.

Re: [Finale] Page Skips
On the Mac side the problem started in 2k4, the first OS X version, as far as I remember originally in the opposite manner, and then over-corrected in a maintenance release.

I've always figured there was something holding up the updating of the screen display (both the page and the page number) that caused this, but have never figured out what it might be. For me, this problem goes back at least to WinFin97, and I'm still seeing it in WinFin2K3. -- David W.

Thanks for pointing this out Robert. You're quite right, a staccato mouse click only turns one page at a time. John On 6 May 2005, at 23:56, Robert Patterson wrote: I have noticed it.

No, Vincent, just a plain vanilla Apple "ProMouse". I have a notion that the problem really began when computer speeds increased.
