Hi Chuck, I believe the trigger for the arrows not working in Speedy is when an autosave is triggered while a different application is in the foreground. The solution to this (and many other similar bugs in Fin2014) is to click in the menu bar. This restores focus to Finale — something that is supposed to happen when you switch back to Finale being the frontmost application. I've just gotten into the habit of always clicking in the titlebar whenever I switch back to Fin2014 from a different app.
[This is a Mac-only issue as far as I know.] Cheers, - DJA ----- WEB: http://www.secretsocietymusic.org On Apr 5, 2014, at 12:45 PM, Chuck Israels <cisra...@comcast.net> wrote: > Yes, there are bugs.
