Okay, I've finally decided to try to get my head round executable shapes for doing rallentando/accel type things, but it doesn't seem to be working right in Finale 2004. Anytime I change the the values of the time or level scales then go back to the score, when I go back into the expression playback, it has gone back to the original value (and yes, I am pressing OK, not Cancel!).
Can someone try this on FinWin2004 to see if they can reproduce the problem on their system: 1. In a document, Choose the expression tool. Select a tempo marking such as "rall". 2. Click the playback tab, then Executable shape "Select". 3. In the Ex.Sh. box that appears, choose one of the descending lines and click "edit". Change any of the numbers in either time or level scale. (They should by default be at 1:1 and 13:4). Click OK, then Select, then OK to put the expression in the score. 4. Now, in the score, double-click on the new expression, and go back to the Ex.Sh. designer edit box. Have the numbers gone back to what they originally were? I've tried to reproduce the problem on Finale 2003, but it's fine and retains all the numbers. If someone else manages to reproduce this, I'm going to get in touch with Winsupport. Damn, just when I thought I had that damn inpenetratable thing figured out. Seasons greetings by the way, Hope you all have a bug-free holiday.
