Re: [Finale] Group Barline override Staff Barline
FWIW: The file was originally created in Fin97 when neither staff styles nor multi-select measure attributes was available. I of course know all the ways to do it now. What burns me is the arbitrary change in how the feature works and the failure of the upgrade process to report that I would need to fix it.

i think the solution was to select all (whole document), show empty staves, reset brackets, then click on a single renegade stave and select hide empty stave (should do it for only that system), then select a real staff and show empty. selecting a renegade and pulling up context menu for delete staves and reposition also works, but this really shouldn't have been necessary at all... does it work for you? i'm not sure how you were deleting when it didn't work. ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

[Finale] different artic positioning F2010/F2012
anyone know why this would happen? trying to figure this out before i go through my 2012 template and change all my default settings. they are identical to my F2012 settings and the font annotation in F2012 is a copy of 2010 (just updated to verify) but the positioning of the flipped symbol is different, in F2012 much closer to the notehead than in 2010. on the left, F2010, on R F2012: http://newmusicnotation.com/TEMPFILES/F2012_artic-position.pdf ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
Re: [Finale] [Olist] Finale question regarding page numbers (I've already checked the Finale forum)

The only thing I can think to do is create page numbers on each side and hide the alternate numbers as needed... but since I'm editing my 200 page opera score.. that would be incredibly tedious. Would love an easy and quick solution if anyone has anything to offer. Unless I misunderstand you, you'll want to check 'use right page positioning' in the page number attributes.
