As far as I know, this bug has not been fixed, even in 2010, probably
because it is seen by MM as a minor annoyance that can be avoided
simply by not reconfiguring the tool pallet. I can't begin to relate
how long this one plagued me, before MM figured out where the problem
was. I leave the tool pallet alone now and have simply gotten used to
its default configuration.

Below is MakeMusic's reply on my complaint about a Finale 2008
bug that
makes the program quit unexpectedly upon launch. It is caused by
the
rearranging the main tool palete in a vertical position, and the
only fix is
the trashing of the preferences file.
This answer is a lie, since the bug still exists in version 2009.

Thank you for your email. Those issues are fixed in Finale 2009.
There
will be no more updates made to Finale 2008. I realize your
distaste for
this decision. I will forward your email to the developers.
Have a great day,
Beth V.
This next quote is from their reply upon my request for a free
2009
upgrade:

We will not send you a free Finale 2009 as the 2008b finale is
compatible
for OS 10.5. If you would like to utilize the new features in
Finale 2009,
your upgrade price from 2008 will be the standard $99.95.
Fortunately, I did not buy 2009...
