In my opinion, it doesn't matter. If it potentially causes mistakes on sight reading then it will invite mistakes in any situation. In my opinion, if the form is repeated over and over for passing inprov around, the form should be spelled out even though the last [A] is identical to the first two: ||: [A] :|| - [B] - [A] If the music is to be played only one path then D.C. al Coda, Coda from right before the 1st/2nd ending of the [A] appears. I'd imagine the last measure, the coda measure(s) will have ending motion indicated even though notes are identical, right? I have not seen any situation more is bad. More often than not, copy/ paste is better than D.C./D.S. especially when you have page turns. Even if it is within the same page, you are forcing performer's eyes jumping around. I hate it. When I have Choro gig, Choro requires a lot of hard readings, and it always ask you to jump around with D.C./D.S. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA <http://a-no-ne.com> <http://anonemusic.com> _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
