You're right! Why has it to be so intricated the way too get that complete window? I could remember I ran into that trick many years ago but completely forgotten it.
Many thanks Christopher

I know what’s going on.

There are TWO different dialogue boxes called “Chord Suffix Selection”. One has 
the edit and create buttons; the other doesn’t. This IS a stupid thing, because 
I often want the create buttons when the one that lacks them is open, and I’ve 
complained about this for about a decade, but they aren’t interested in 
changing it.

To get to the one that HAS the edit buttons, enter a chord in your score, any 
chord.

Make sure it’s selected in the Chord Tool (drag around it if you can’t see the 
tiny little handle) and hit Enter. The Chord Definition dialogue box opens.

Click the button Show Advanced in the top right (if it isn’t already clicked) 
to open up more options (Finale will remember this setting so you don’t have to 
click it every time).

Almost at the very bottom, click Suffix ID> Select.

NOW you get the right dialogue box!

Once you are done, please open up a tech support ticket at MakeMusic to 
complain about this, because they will change it if they get enough complaints.

Hi to all

I never had the need to modify the chord library I used (Jazzfont or 
Handwritten) but now
I would want to group all the suffixes I use mostly one near the other.
Well, the buttons from "edit" to "create" that are mentioned in the User Manual 
aren't
there in the Chord Suffix Selection window.
Only zoom "-" and "+", "Select", "Cancel" and "Help"
This happens on 2006, 2012 and 2014 versions I have installed.
Please help.
Thanks
