[Finale] chord extensions
Hello--I'm having trouble writing a chord such as D7(#5b9) into the guitar parts on a score. It is reading the flat sign in front of b9 as a capital B instead of a flat. Even going into the Chord Definition box and the Chord Suffix box I'm not seeing a way to write it. I don't want to write -9. I am using Finale 2007 and Windows XP Pro. Any suggestions? Thank you in advanceBrian ** See what's new at http://www.aol.com ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

And beat/note handles often fail to appear when using the measure tool. I don't know if this has to do with showing defined measure numbers or not. I haven't checked it out. Is there another explanation for this? I have also been bitten by the explode music bug - when exploding music that has been enharmonically changed in the original staff, the explosion is not only unreliable enharmonically, but it also loses notes! Vigilance is required.

I have certainly seen this one many times! In 2007 and 2008, checking display defined measure numbers causes all kinds of problems, especially when you have more than one measure number region, and when you try to go through double- clicking a measure in the Time Sig or Key Sig tools. Strangely, right-clicking in these tools is no problem, but then you can't select a region. Also the Measure tool gives inconsistent results if you try to add double bars when DDMN is checked.

Something wrong also with the display defined measure numbers option. I seem to recall others had problems with this, but don't remember the details. The big problem that I have run into is that you can't enter them into the playback controls. Ever since they added the ability to score to film and added the measure:beat:frame ability for initiating playback, we can't enter defined measure numbers such as 3:25 (3rd region, measure 25) and have to use the actual measure numbers. I don't know if there are any other problems. -- David H. Bailey [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

I don't want to write -9. If I understand your situation correctly, you specify, in the Chord Definition box, 9 as number, and check the option to add preceding flat. By the way, are you sure you want D7(#5, b9) instead of D7(b9, b13)? (#5, b9) means you want to keep natural 13th but no 5th. The dictated scale would sound pretty ethnic :-) -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

FWIW, sometimes when working in FinMac2K7, I can't access beat handles. I've noticed this has something to do with a plugin window being open on my 2nd monitor. Usually TGT or Patterson. Closing that window solves the problem in that case.

I have noticed inconsistencies with the beat handles, but I haven't been able to track down what it is related to. I will keep an eye out for this when using show defined measure numbers, and will report back if I notice anything. ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

Vigilance is required. Apparently this is related to using the 9 key in Speedy. If you use any other method, like setting the enharmonic spelling defaults differently, or using Simple Entry, or what I do, entering the note WITHOUT the alteration and then adding it with the + or - key, then the problem is avoided completely. I hope they fix this one real soon! Christopher ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
