Re: [Finale] Galloping Expression

[David H. Bailey]

I will bet it has to do with the fact that he created the pickup measure using Finale's pickup measure feature. This has never worked completely as it should, so I always create my pickups by using the appropriate time signature to hold only the notes I want and using the correct time signature for display, so it really is just another measure, not some fancy Finale-altered pickup measure.

Richard,

I did as you asked and found that the expression moves to the left no
matter which arrow key I pressed. I also found that this behavior happens
only when it is attached to the pickup measure as a measure attached
expression. Using it as a measure attached expression in the other measures
resulted in the correct arrow key movement. Also, attaching as a note
attached expression worked correctly in both the pickup measure and the
other measures. I haven't had time to try to investigate why this behavior
occurs, but I will try the first chance I get.

Can someone confirm the buggy behavior in a small FinWin2003a file?

It is at http://www.yatesguitar.com/misc/bug.MUS .
Open the file.
Select the Expression Tool.
Click on the expression handle.
Press the right-cursor key.

Does the expression move to the left?
