Re: [Finale] 2014.5

So far, so good. Simple way to take care of FAN files and Plugins (Mac): Go to root level Library/ApplicationSupport/MakeMusic/Finale 2014 Duplicate 2 folders and move them temporarily to the desktop - FAN Files and Plugins. Then move the duplicates into the App Support for 2014.5 Quit and

[Finale] Measure number regions bug

Hi all, Working in FinWin2011. I've got a piece with several measure number regions, including a few bars that are excluded from numbering -- either through measure attributes, or because they sit in between defined regions. I'm finding that when I do something like change a key signature or

Re: [Finale] Measure number regions bug

This bug is related to the “include in measure numbering” measure attribute, not the measure number regions. This affects many tools, so what I suggest is to NOT unclick “include in measure numbering” until you are ready to format and print. Christopher > On Nov 17, 2015, at 6:47 PM, Aaron

Re: [Finale] Measure number regions bug

The fix is to change display measure numbers to "actual" instead of "defined" within the preferences. Let me know if you have any further questions. Steve > On Nov 17, 2015, at 5:45 PM, Aaron Sherber wrote: > > Hi all, > > Working in FinWin2011. I've got a piece with

Patterson Plug-ins not showing for me. The folders show up, but empty. Are they there for you? The other quirk with it is that I can’t seem to resize the main tool palette the way that I could before - in two columns but with lower tools hidden. Steve P. > On 18 Nov 2015, at 00:31, Chuck

For Fin2014.5 you need to download the version of Patterson Plugins for Finale 2014.5. On Tue, Nov 17, 2015 at 6:56 PM, Steve Parker wrote: > Patterson Plug-ins not showing for me. The folders show up, but empty. Are > they there for you? > > The other quirk with it is that

Re: [Finale] 2014.5

Does anyone know of a trick to get dashed ties for every note of a slur? I have a 3-part chord that should properly have three dashed ties, but the system will only let me use one through Smart Shapes. Aaron J. Rabushka Finale 14, Windows 8.1 ___

Re: [Finale] 2014.5

Aaron, I usually use beat-attached dotted-slurs for that. You may find my Smart Shape Editor helpful for precision editing of beat-locations with spacial offsets, since the beat-attached UI is not implements for dotted slurs. (They work, but the UI is still the pre-Fin12 UI.) And you may find my

Re: [Finale] 2014.5

I can't answer the question about log drums, but as far as tubas are concerned, you have to think of the key of the instrument. Tubas come in BB flat, CC, E flat and F [those are the most common keys.] The trill you mention is a lip trill on the BB flat instrument, and on the others it should be a

Re: [Finale] 2014.5

Two off-topic questions: 1) Are there any experts in tuba trills here? I need to know if a trill from f# (4th line of the bass clef) to the g# above is workable. 2) Where can I find information about log drums (sizes, ranges)? I've been looking for a solid wooden sound to carry through the

Tuba trills: f# to g# in the staff would be fingered: 2/3 to 1 on a BBb. A bit awkward.Alternate fingering would be quite out of tune 2 to 2/3 on a CC Tuba. Easy. 2 to 1 on an Eb tuba. Easy. Sorry, but other poster was not correct. 1/2 to 2 on an F tuba. Easy. I have avoided any options of 5th or

Hello Robert, I downloaded your latest version of the plugin and I don't see anything other than a could of subsets called "multimeasured rests" "name Utilities" and "staff sets" but no actual plugins to use. I've restarted, thrown prefs, etc... When I look I the plugin folder all of the files

Re: [Finale] Superficial comment on Finale 2014.5

Hi, The oddest first thing I found about Finale 2014.5 (before taking it for a drive) is that after reading the list of fixes and improvements, there is no indication anywhere on the pop-up menu as to how to download it! After some confusion, you discover you have to click on "*learn more*" –

Re: [Finale] Superficial comment on Finale 2014.5

A lot longer than 30 seconds for me. If you do "check for updates" from within Finale, then you get useful instructions, but none of that is in the Readme or in the announcement email. You won't find this in the downloads section like other patches. The procedure is to log onto you account

> Even though it says it is 2014, it is actually 2014.5 I don’t understand how things like this get rolled out in 2015. We were laughing about it when I was still working in tech back in 1992. Disconcerting. Like a trumpet player who shows up without any valve oil. I’m happy the update was
