[Finale] {Spam} Speedy Entry worry again...

2010-10-31 Thread Michael Greensill
I bit the bullet and did upgrade to 2011. But in reading the quick  
reference guide that came with 2011, I notice that under entering  
the music they only describe simple entry. The only mention of  
speedy, and it's in teeny tiny type, is at the end of that section and  
it says...See speedy entry in the user manual for other ways to  
enter music.
It definitely seems like they're steering newbies away from, what  
seems to me according to this list, to be the most popular form of  
entering music.

They've been downplaying Speedy Entry now for several versions, trying 
to get people to think of Finale as more compatible with Sibelius, whose 
computer-keyboard-and-mouse entry system is much more like the newly 
improved Simple Entry.


Sort of Finale's way of saying We won't be doing anything to improve 
Speedy Entry anymore it seems.
