I have now observed the same behavior in the double-sharp, which becomes a graphic single-sharp when you try to resize it. I have tracked down the cause of both bugs. In both cases, the wrong Alternate Character symbol is shown in the Accidental Settings dialog. Correcting the symbol selection fixes the problem.

[Finale] OT: screen rotation on new Power Mac G5's?
Does anyone have one of the new (October-November 2005) Power Mac G5's with one (Dual) or two (Quad) dual-core processors? If so, do any of the built-in Nvidia graphics cards (GeForce 6600 LE, 6600, 7800 GT, or Quadro FX 4500) support screen rotation? (These Power Macs use the PCI Express interface.) For older Power Macs, you could buy an ATI Radeon card with Versavision for screen rotation. I don't know if ATI makes any Mac-compatible PCI Express cards. My aging Power Mac G4 (500 MHz) needs to be replaced, but I'm trying to decide whether or not to wait until the new Intel Power Macs come out (late 2006?).

[Finale] graphics bug in 2006
Hi All, I don't know if this was known to the list, but I just received confirmation of the bug from Brian in MacSupport: = Yes. There is an issue where in Finale 2006, if you have ever inserted a graphic, dragged it, then GONE TO THE EDIT MENUUNDO, FROM THAT POINT FORWARD all graphics in the document will disappear and the file is corrupted. You would then need to copy/paste into an entirely new document and NEVER Undo after placing a graphic into the piece. = [his caps, by the way...] I insert graphics all the time and this bug is detrimental to my productivity. At least they have it identified and can avoid fixing it like the other bugs. Er, I mean... Add it to the list of things to fix in a timely fashion. I'm not sure if the undo he mentions refers only to undoing the graphic drag, or if it means doing any undo ever. My graphics have only disspeared in one instance. The graphics in the other files I have move around and print on pages other than to the page it was asssigned. Anyone else experience this? Ryan __ Yahoo! DSL Something to write home about.

It's reasonable that for a certain volume of requests you'd be required to pay beyond that point. However, many free resources limit the number of times you can use them in a day, and they don't require a logon. All they do is count the number of requests from a particular IP address. I can tick off a half dozen such sites. You can certainly pay for unlimited service. But I see no reason why you should have to set up an account and logon to look up one single postal code. That is completely senseless, and is completely orthogonal to the question of whether one should or should not pay for volume services. -- David W.
