Hi... Does the latest *full* version of TGTools (2.45b?) work with WinFin 09? I don't want to experiment to find out, being fearful of any consequences. Jim ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

Hi Jim, The TG Tools menu looks strange in 2009, (everything strung in an alphabetical line), but most of the tools I've tried have worked. Chuck Sent from my iPhone On Aug 31, 2008, at 7:35 AM, Williams, Jim [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi... Does the latest *full* version of TGTools

[Finale] Harp gliss grace notes

2008-08-31 Thread Greg Hamilton
Hi Christopher, The standard way of indicating a harp glissando and notating the pitches is as seven 32nd notes and then extend the beams over a little. From there use a gliss. line to the final pitch of the gliss. and put a slur over it. An excellent reference on harp writing is a book

Hi everyone---I've noticed that my jazz ensemble template is looking tiny and this is after I've been careful about things like line thickness and other tweaks. Everything looks very small and crowded. How do I make this template maintain the settings I've given it? Thanks in advance---Brian
