Patsy, I am afraid the platform info wouldn't have helped you in this case. The smart shape metatools were introduced in a version after 2000. Even if we would all stick to your recommendation, I think it would be fair to assume that anything that isn't labeled applies to the latest version of Finale on both platforms, which in this case it did. Furthermore, hardly anyone will remember when certain features, especially rather minor things like the one mentioned were introduced, so labeling something "WinFin 2001" may even lead people into wrong assumptions. In certain cases it even happens that features in Fin2000 have changed dramatically in 2002, so the instructions are no longer valid in future versions. Not that I am opposed to what you are suggesting, just pointing out that it would have been of no help to you. It is in fact almost a certainty that the majority of posts refer to the latest version of Finale, and it is simply short-sighted to assume that they work in 2000. Version 2000 was released in 1999, which is now four years ago.
