The confusion comes here when two adjacent notes are connected

would you tell the difference?
The problem in Finale is that on the "simple entry" you can turn on
the "tie" option for a notehead and it will cheerfully connect them
even when it makes no sense, i.e. two different pitches. I would not
use "smart shapes" on two adjacent notes.
Obviously bill has not yet received the numerous messages that refute this.
A slur makes sense for violin parts or trombone parrts, but not on
piano parts.
Eh? What's the difference? A slur is a slur is a slur, except when
it's thought of as a phrase marking. But even that's still a slur!
