Re: [Finale] dis-/reappearing tempo markings
found a solution that seems to work, even after closing and reopening a doc several times. select check all staves in the score list dialogue and uncheck top staff for the part. ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
Re: [Finale] dis-/reappearing tempo markings
You're not alone! I also cannot seem to get on with the new system for staff lists in 2009, they seem to have a mind of their own. The option for 'show on top staff' does not work, especially when used in conjunction with a score and parts in the same file. The tempo expressions just don't appear on the top stave of the part even though it is checked. I need to check mark them all to get it to work. I have lost a lot of time and made some serious errors because of this. Finale 07/08 never gave me a problem in this area, what you put in was what you got in the part. It also plays up if you add staves after you have set up score expressions (tempo markings). I don't know if I'm alone on this one either, but has anyone else noticed unusual things happening with playbacks in finmac09. For instance, I get phantom 'hidden' notes (little groups of 32 or 64th notes) added in various staves for no reason, and whenever I set up a rall. or rit. to playback with a shape assignment it seems to go horribly wrong, something which I have done perfectly well in hundreds of files previously. In fact, it appears that if I set up a playback shape and then return to open the file later the playback gets all messed up, some ralls turning into a complete slow down to a hold. The only solution is to make them so fine in tempo reduction that they just about work. Any old file updated or clipped in just messes up completely. I also seem to have a lot of similar shapes appear in the selection box. Has anyone also had this problem: You are putting in artics, accents, staccs, etc by clicking them in or drag clicking (while holding down the metatool) and then all of a sudden finale freezes - spinning beach ball of death - and then finale crashes. It usually happens when I go from clicking them in individually to drag-metatooling them or vice-versa, and if I change layer between these actions it is guaranteed to crash finale. It's better to know if I am not the only one suffering! Jonathan ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
[Finale] dis-/reappearing tempo markings
i can't figure this one out (2010). i'm cleaning upo the parts of an orch score and 2 of the 3 temp markings in the score (all stored in the tempo marks category) are not showing on some new parts. fl1 and 2 were ok (all instr. separate staves in score), then fl3 was missing them. i checked obs and clars and they were missing there as well. fl1 and 2 were still ok (the tempos in question have been moved in the parts). went to check/edit the staff list in the category/positioning window, everything seemed fine, checked fl3 in the pt column... and the thing reappearedc everywhere. then i reset the staff list to top of SC / top of PT, everything still seemed fine. now i'm in the obs and the trhing has disappeared again any ideas? or is this just (another goddamn) bug? ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
Re: [Finale] dis-/reappearing tempo markings

Re: [Finale] dis-/reappearing tempo markings
This was happening to me in 2009 if I recall. But only randomly, and only in one particular file. It is worrying. 2009/10/6 shirling neueweise shirl...@newmusicnotation.com ah fantastic, when i do get them to reappear they lose all the positioning adjustments i amde... is it just me...? ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
Re: [Finale] dis-/reappearing tempo markings
i seem to remember hearing somewhere that it might be related to time sig attached expressions... i'll change them tomorrow to left barline attached and see if that works.

Re: [Finale] dis-/reappearing tempo markings
This was happening to me in 2009 whenever I removed measures, but only on certain categories of expressions. If I remember correctly, it was tempo marks and tempo changes. I never got the reason (time sig?) but your fix worked (except I had to re-adjust all markings I had nudged!) I haven't seen it yet in 2010, but I haven't been removing measures, either.
