I have a small but time consuming problem with items disappearing.
Tech support have told me it is because I’m using a template made in a Finale
version before 2014 and that I should create new Templates in 2014.
Almost every setting is tweaked as well as a lot of carefully placed items, so
this
when i had to do this, i simply took screenshots of every possible
page in the document options, opened my finale doc in the main screen
and the images on my smaller screen and hacked through transferring
the settings one by one. yuck.
thought i was being clever by naming all the screenshots
document options i would think gets it all. if
upgrading then also programme options.
libraries:
- stem connections
- articulations
- text expressions
- ...
depending on how much of an overhaul you are doing.
i did this between 2012 and 2014, started with a
new doc no libraries. was a big
I was dreading that that might be the solution..
I was hoping that Finale might store them in a text file somewhere…
Are there any gotchas?
I need libraries, document settings, details of any page items.. anything else?
Thanks!

Don't document options save to libraries?
I get my line parameters and defined expressions, when I load my customized
library to scratch documents.
One aspect not loaded to library is line thickness of smart shape lines.

I’m also worried that whatever is causing the disappearance of items is going
to get transferred by importing my libraries.

the two times i needed to do this: 1) i started from scratch so did
it from the ground up; 2) i needed only some of the settings, and

Recreating a template for a new version is a tortuous and torturous task.
Robert Patterson's Scrapbook Setting plugin just doesn't seem to work for
me, and I'm not sure it's comprehensive enough to completely recreate a
template with all one's refinements.
If someone came up with a plug-in that
Personally I am skeptical that the upgraded templates are the source of
your problem. It's possible, I suppose, but I would want more than the word
of a tech support person to believe it. When you say things are
disappearing, what does that mean?

Two things.
Firstly, the name of the score in score manager doesn't survive closing the
file.
Secondly, text boxes with inserts disappear when the file is closed and
re-opened.
I couldn't get further with tech support. These things didn't happen with new
files created from the wizard and

That's a major, data-erasing bug, and MakeMusic should know of it ASAP. I hope
you have opened a tech support case detailing what you told us.
Thanks for tracking this down, and sorry it cost you data.

I would recommend opening the templates in their original version and
running data check on them. Then open them in Fin14 and run data check on
them again. Save the result as a Fin14 template and see if you continue to
have the problem.

Autosave was on by default when I installed F2014 on Windows 8.1 (just
before Christmas 2014 on a new Lenovo laptop) and has never given me any
trouble on several different versions of FInale since the mid 90s; it
