The repeat markers ARE appearing in the parts. The issue is that they appear in a bad place and cannot be edited in the part if they fall into a multi-measure rest.

I usually use the select tool, so I didn't see those handles. When I click on the repeat took in the score, I see the handles for all the "To Coda" marks even though the mark does not appear (because I asked for top staff only. And yes, I can move the handle in the score. But it is still guesswork. I might have to bounce back and forth between the score and linked part several times before I get the mark to appear in an acceptable place. I really believe I should be able to drag it directly in the linked part. You can do that anywhere else except under a mm rest -- and even then you can drag the marks assigned to the FIRST measure of a mm rest. Anyway, I have several workarounds now, so I appreciate all those suggestions. I do hope that Finale will fix this behavior. BTW, I think the genesis of my problem is that the handle for the "To Coda" in the top staff in the score was in a different place from handles in all the other staffs. Evidently I inserted the "To Coda" with the handle landing in the middle of the measure. I must have dragged it to the right, but that dragging operation only affected the top handle and left the other handles in the middle of measure 56. When Finale went to build the 50-56 mm rest, it anchored "To coda" almost an inch away from the ending barline in that mm rest. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
