My God man, how do you function in the world? Seriously. I've received a
couple of private emails saying that it was a belittling comment. Not in
your world. I think that is what ticks me off. You coming off as the "be
all end all authority" here. I think there are some serious holes in
your "training" if you didn't even think about transposing.
I was saying, and I believe citing examples, of how it made sense from a
prospective of someone who deals with music every day. Or perhaps has
training in arranging or composition. Sure, I'm familiar with Finale,
but it makes sense regardless. I cited a number of examples of why. All
dismissed out of hand. Could it be somewhere else as well? Sure. Maybe.
I'm not convinced that it should be somewhere else. But to label someone
Stockholm Syndrome for trying to say it makes sense from a music
prospective, that is crossing the line. I'll dismiss your arguments as
Headinass Syndrome. Perhaps that is why you got to be in the tangle you
are in......you dismissed something out of hand, or didn't really read
up on something cause you "knew" it. Yeah. Ok.
I still think the Finale documentation is some of the best for software
I've seen, and I do refer to it when I can't figure stuff out. And I
have yet not to find what I am looking for.

I don't see it that way, though I certainly did intend it as a
criticism. But not all criticisms are "belittling" or insulting.
In any event, in the timeline I established, I allowed that my own
contributions to the discourse had departed from the cordial level by
yesterday, which would exclude my assertion that you were
sympathizing with your "captors."
