Richard Agreed. But consider this. One of the things that the Adobe Creative Suite programs have is customizable workspaces. They have a number of workflow-specific workspaces (for print production or typography, etc.), but then they also have workspaces that emulate other Creative Suite programs so that you can work in one program similarly to another. For instance, when I use Adobe Illustrator, I can use the Like Photoshop workspace if I'm familiar with that program, or Like InDesign if I'm familiar with it. The workspaces aren't 100% identical, since each has its own set of tools, but it makes it easier to use. The workspace customization includes menu options, toolbars and palettes (and perhaps a couple of other things I can't think of offhand). Similarly, you could offer the user a Like Finale or Like Sibelius or Like MuseScore environment. While not identical, a similar logic to how those palettes/toolbars are constructed could be applied to ease the learning curve. This would not require specialized versions, per se, so much as preconfigured preferences, perhaps? I introduced a profiles feature a while back but it is currently disabled because it requires people familiar with each environment to actively update each profile as the program develops; the one of particular interest to the LilyPond users on this list is one that means that the typing of note-names and durations mimics \relative mode in a LilyPond editor (with the advantage that you immediately see if you have gone into the wrong octave, whereon you press , or ' to correct). The palettes (which are new to Denemo) are entirely customizable by the user - position, order of elements, aspect ratio, icon, tooltip and even the command it runs can tweaked by the user to have a different behavior. So providing look-alike palettes would be entirely possible. Having said that, I imagine a vast amount of stuff in those programs is just not needed when using Denemo/LilyPond because the typesetting is done for you. If you *do* need to tweak the typesetting then I think the departure from familiarity is inevitable at present (is Schicker's List heading in the direction of visually manipulating LilyPond's grobs?).

I tried a couple of times to do it with Denemo and really didn't have a good experience. Part of it is the very menu-centric approach (too cluttered), Well, up to now, the menus were there mainly to allow the user to find out what the keyboard shortcuts were - even things like move the cursor right have menu entries so that you can find out that right arrow does this. (In that case you could guess, but move to measure right? ... staff down ...) Now we have palettes too, so those that want to click buttons can, and search facilities for finding commands and short cuts. But there is still a way to go. but in general, it just wasn't intuitive to me as a GUI. MuseScore does well enough for what I do with it. I think that initial experience with Denemo can be very overwhelming, particularly if we're talking about someone coming from a Finale-like experience. I've used Finale and a broad selection of other music tools (both composition and production), and Denemo was just...different. MuseScore is different from Finale, but it's alike enough to be a much shallower learning curve. yes, I can imagine. To bring us back to Marketing, it's well and good to talk about all the things that LilyPond or Denemo or Frescobaldi can do that Finale and/or Sibelius can't. However, if we're looking at convincing people to switch from Finale and/or Sibelius to the LilyPond sphere of influence, we have to be able to show them that everything only some people are interested in everything, many want just their own bits of interest.

I think that feature, along with not having a ton of windows open on launch every time, would really make Denemo an even more viable option, as far as choosing an engraving application for newcomers. Maybe?
