Re: [Finale] Help needed quickly

[Raymond Horton]

Thank you to everyone who offered suggestions concerning my problem with a
very large file in which my collaborator wanted to move songs among the
text pages of script. As I reported at the time I had a deadline of just a
few days away. I was able, fortunately, to turn in the score and script
with the songs in the order in which I already had them, and that was
sufficient for the small grant which I received for the project. Now I am
painstakingly moving songs and text pages one by one. None of the solutions
suggested
really would help a great deal. Making a PDF file and then reordering the
pages would work, but would not be a help when it comes time to make parts.
Attaching text boxes to measure numbers might help, but I know that the
measure numbers will change whenever a song is deleted and moved, so I
think I'd be right back where I am now.
I am not sure if there is a software solution available, but I really
appreciate everyone trying to help.

Hmm... I do not currently own TG tools Pro . As I look at the website it
looks like a good purchase. Can anyone tell me if it has a text to
expression converter? I cannot tell from the website.

Oh, my.  All this time and I've never noticed the radio buttons distinguishing

[Finale] Help needed quickly

[David Wolfson]

Don’t know if this will be enough to help, but in the text box dialog you can 
change from “attached to page” to “attached to measure.” It will remove manual 
positioning, but it will then survive cutting and pasting, and it would be less 
work than recreating everything as expressions.

I agree with the PDF suggestion. In making various versions of larger scores,
I've used this way of re-ordering. You can even eliminate page numbers in your
Finale score, and place them in Adobe Acrobat (or other PDF creators).

Hello Raymond.

Would it help to make PDF of everything and and then delete and reorder the 
pages.
Then it’s possible to keep working on the music, just make PDF of changed pages.

Yes, I realize that that would fix it , if I have done that from the
beginning. But the problem is that I have a 200 Page score with many many
text pages. Thank you

Hi Raymond,

if I understood your problem correctly: create an expression that has the same 
text as currently and then use only the expression tool instead of the text 
tool and assign it to a particular note or measure.

Raphael.

[Finale] Help needed quickly

[Raymond Horton]

Hi folks, I have a massive project due Thursday, and some big problems with
it. I know I probably should have exported this into some other program,
but I want to keep be able to keep working on the music. It is a musical
with pages of text interspersed between songs. my collaborator wants to
move some of the songs, but this means I have to read a sign every page of
text. Is there some way to delete pages of music, while at the same time
keeping the pages of text relative to the same location?
Right now, if I move a song to a later position in the score , the text
stays assigned to the same page number, instead of its place in the score.

Thanks for any help.
