Re: [Finale] the eternal lyric bugs

[Christopher Smith]

Well, what font are you using for lyrics? Try temporarily setting it to Times 
New Roman and see if the hyphens suddenly appear after you update layout.

Thank you Chuck, that helps hyphenating, but I don't see how it could  
help making Finale stop hiding the hyphens I typed. And it is not  
because of tight space, as Christopher pointed out. There is plenty of  
space.

Re: [Finale] the eternal lyric bugs

[Christopher Smith]

Retyping them won’t help. Finale eliminates the hyphen when it judges the 
spacing to be too tight to let it be legible. Opening up a bit of space might 
help, or using a slightly more compact lyric font. Or maybe your lyric font 
doesn’t have a FAN, so Finale thinks all the characters are super-wide? That’s 
just a thought.

Harold,

Don't know what's going on with Finale, but I do know that there is an 
auto-hyphenating website where you can copy in your lyric and it does a 
reasonable job of hyphenation. 

I'll send the URL when I am back at my computer.

[Finale] the eternal lyric bugs

[Haroldo Mauro]

Just finished adding lyrics to my score. Finale shows hiphenation only where it 
wants too. Some words have them some don’t, despite their being there, visible, 
in the Lyrics Window. Is there a solution for that? Do I have to type 
everything again?

Thank you, Douglas. Those look like excellent suggestions, and I can't wait

Re: [Finale] Tempo mark failure - total

[Douglas Brown]

Hello, Ray.

The first thing I do is check if the "Match playback to metronome marking text" 
box is either checked or unchecked as I need it on all of my tempo marks, or if 
I'm forcing a different tempo, that it matches up.  Sometimes several close 
tempo change markings overlap in my piece and I have to force it with the 
special Tempo Tool.  If I don't want to do that (which I often don't), the next 
thing works for me practically every time:

Move all of the entries out of the offending measure, delete that measure, 
insert a new measure stack, and replace the info that you copied to elsewhere.  
Do not copy the entire stack in one move -- select only some of the staves in 
two separate moves, if necessary, ust so that it isn't a whole-stack move.  
Once everything is back in place, insert any stack commands (tempo changes, 
etc.) that you need.

Of course, if this doesn't work, there's always the ol' 
create-an-entirely-new-file-and copy-staves-in-a-non-stack-manner trick.

Douglas Brown


For various reasons, I run several different Finale versions on my Windows
10 machine. Finale 2011, 2014, and 25. Currently, I can't get any of them
to respond to tempo changes within a piece, whether I add an expression,
put the tempo in the playback window, or anything. Any advice will be
helpful, thank you!

When was the last time you did a full reboot of your computer?  If
that's not working in any version of Finale I suspect it's a computer
problem and not a Finale problem.
