Yeah, I really don't have any problem with that keystroke. It needed
to be similar to the original shortcut, which was not available because
that key combo is reserved by the OS. The good part is that Finale now
has a shortcut for cycling through all open windows, which was badly
needed.
I've followed the OLD on creating quarter-tone accidentals, but now I need
to tap the list's collective wisdom on making quarter-tones playback. I
figure I'll need to use pitch bend to do it, but for that I'd need to know
how big to bend for a semitone (then divide by 2 for the quarter-tone).
I am on a German keyboard, so that won't work. Plus I need the shift key
as well.
Keyboard shortcut support in FinMac on a German keyboard is actually
terrible!
I don't have any specific keystroke which I prefer, however, my
suggestion is to make Finale's keystrokes completely
I quite agree, but more to the point, this has got nothing to do with OS
X (other than that OS X has more standardized keyboard shortcuts, which
is in fact a very good thing!).

2 months ago I left the Windows platform determined to concentrate on

Can you help me??

I use a Microsoft optical mouse with a scroll wheel and can scroll up and
down. FYI, I programmed the scroll wheel (as middle button) to double click
which eases strain on theold tendons.

you can scroll in Finale Windows, but not with the most recent Logitech driver
