[Finale] Finale 2008b fermatas

2008-11-13 Thread Martin Banner

If the flipped fermata is not in the articulation definition you can add it: Place a fermata. Double click the fermata to open the Articulation Designer box. Click on 'Flipped...' Select the inverted fermata (it is slot 117 in the character set.) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL

Hi Darcy, The only difference between 2009a and 2009b is that they fixed the EPS problem. I happened to have written to this list about it (EPS export causes ties to disappear). I wrote to finale support and they told me about 2009b. Now EPS export includes all the ties. Also 2009b

Since 2007, Finale's INSERT command has had a really annoying bug. I do a lot of updating of some really old scores to have better VST, etc. Until 2009b, internal key changes had to be made by hand;-( That seems to be fixed now. I am greatly relieved;-) Henry Howey Professor of Music Sam

Hi everyone: A friend has let me borrow a book called Musical Ensembles in Festival Books: 1500 - 1800. by Edmund A. Bowles. It must have hundreds of woodcuts and drawings from original sources, that I've never seen before-- and I've read a lot of music history books. It's really impressive. I

I'll check, but this book seems to be centered around Festivals related to coronations and other occassions for nobility and royality. If I find anything I'll let you know. Oh I heard your Haydn Trios CD, very nice ;) Thanks Kim On Thu, Nov 13, 2008 at 5:15 PM, Johannes Gebauer [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is good news to me. I've always been a bit frustrated that when bounces occur, there is no way for the end user (me) to fix the problem. In the case of this list, the only thing we can do is send an email to you - which you doubtless get tired of. So let me say in advance: Thanks

I would not do it. I'm relatively unhappy with the changes to copy/paste in 08 and quite unhappy with the changes to expressions in 09. There are a few compensating bug fixes, so depending on what kind of music you write it might be worth it. (I understand chords work better as to lyric
