Hi Jan
   The  Jari's plugin "JW Copy Part Layout" does not work on Finale.v25. Only
   two  plugins  have  been adapted to 64bits JW accidentals and JW Staff
   polyphony. And they work well with Finale v25

Have you tried the "JW Copy Part Layout" plugin for copying layout
things between linked parts ?

Robert,
deal breaker for me regarding linked parts is that you cannot copy certain thin
gs from measure to measure in linked parts. For instance, I often fine tune mea
sure layouts in parts and if I have a part that repeats measures that individua
l edit cannot be copied to other measures - instead I have to try to make them
look alike. If I remember correctly the same is true for things like trying to
copy a slur shape from one measure to another. That complicates trying to achie
ve a professional look tremendously.

Has that been addressed as well?
Thanks,
Thomas Schaller

I don't think 2012 is faster than 25. It may be roughly comparable. Where
25 really blows away the earlier versions is in starting up human playback.

I also wouldn't let the print dialog issues stop you from upgrading. Though
the issues are annoying and glaring, there are workarounds. The actual
print quality is fine. (I'm pretty sure the print dialog issues are Mac
only.)

There are a number of significant improvements between Fin12 and Fin25. The
two big ones are 1) beat-attached smart shapes replaced meas-attached smart
shapes. This allows for much more precise placement in both score and
parts. 2) Special tool edits are unlinkable in parts. With these two
changes, linked parts are basically 98% fully functional.

Especially on Windows, I would not hesitate to upgrade from Fin12 to Fin25.

FWIW: The "2%" that's still missing from linked parts: unlinkable
horizontal offsets for mid-measure clefs, unlinkable vertical offsets for
rests, voiced parts recognize special tools edits, plugin edits in part
view unlink anything that can be unlinked manually.

There are complaints in every version. The question is whether you can
live with them. If 2012 works for you (it won’t install on my new Mac) it
apparently is quicker than 2014, 2014.5 or v. 25, so you could stick with
it. The files can be shared with other users of newer versions, and they
can save in 2012 file format, so that issue is taken care of.

Hi from what I've read I definitely won't be upgrading
May I ask what the consensus is as to which is the best version of finale
I seem to remember many complaints about 2014
I'm currently still on finale 2012 using Windows 10
Would be good to know
