Re: [Finale] Freeze measure widths?
A-NO-NE Music wrote: So, how would you freeze the measure width which won't be screwed with Music Spacing? If you apply Music Spacing, it will affect measure widths. P.S. By the way, I used to [5]+DoubleClick to space music back in v2.6- 3.2 days. What happened to that feature? If that were still available, I could turn AutoSpacing option off. Any tip? It's in the MassMover metatools. '4' is for note spacing. Best regards, Jari Williamsson ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
[Finale] Music stand and stand light recommendations
Hi Darcy, Have you tried Konig Meyer yet? http://www.k-m.de/D/Katalog/index.asp?spr=EN They have a great range of stands and accessories and they have both mains and battery powered lights. They also do a stand 'kit' which comes with stand, light and a carrying case which is really useful if you intend to move around with your gigs. Jonathan Hey gang, Okay, my 18-piece band is going to start gigging soon and I'm going to need to invest in some stands and stand lights for us. I'm looking for recommendations. The stands must be lightweight and collapsable -- not necessarily wire stands, but I have to be able to fit 20 of them in a luggable wheel cart. ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
RE: [Finale] OT: Christo's The Gates, NYC Central Park
My strongest feeling, though, was that they could have built a couple of schools in New York for the same money and created something of both beauty and lasting value. We have a similar argument in the UK for stopping the funding of all opera.

Re: [Finale] OT: Christo's The Gates, NYC Central Park
My strongest feeling, though, was that they could have built a couple of schools in New York for the same money and created something of both beauty and lasting value. I believe that there is an error in this line of thinking. There is no the same money. If this privately-funded project did not exist, the funds collected for it would not have gone to building schools. Christo and Jeanne-Claude fund their projects largely by selling original artwork, prints, books, and other objects based upon their project. It's a self-sustaining, circular funding arrangement that resembles entertainment-industry marketing much more than any form of philanthropy or public works. The serious issue of school funding -- and for all of us on this list, music education funding -- has to be put in the context of the priorities set by the state for its budget and, to a much smaller extent, for private philanthropy (which is intimately related to taxation). In _this_ context, we are really talking about the same money, and music education ultimately does stand in direct competition with guns, butter, highways, pensions, healthcare, and protecting the environment.

Re: [Finale] Respacing Music
Jacki, You'll have to respace it before updating layout. The easiest way to respace is Mass Edit tool, Select All (cmd-A) then hit the number 4 over the E and R keys, which is the MetaTool for Note Spacing. You may have to unlock the systems if they are locked, so that the respacing actually has someplace to send the squooshed bars if it has to.

However, now several of my lyrics are squooshed together and even though I've chosen Update Layout and made sure it says for lyrics not to collide or anything, it's not reflowing for some reason. How do you get Finale to respace everything to not collide when you add things like this? Thanks!

Re: [Finale] OT: Christo's The Gates, NYC Central Park
I strongly believe that we needs the arts, but let's look at this from a different vantage point. What would, say, Martians think if were watching us from space and observing us as one people with single set of resources, and seeing the dramatic disparity between The Gates and a middle school in the Bronx that has no resources at all: no books, no lockers, nothing they need.

Re: [Finale] OT: Christo's The Gates, NYC Central Park
This is illogical, Crystal. Having art in the park has nothing at all to do with the condition of our schools. We can have both, one or the other or neither. They are NOT interdependent. Using your premise, there ought not to be any space exploration because our health care system is wanting.
