I would be tempted to show the empty cello staff for the first system, and then optimize the rest of the systems until the cello actually plays. It is such an out-of-the-ordinary situation that I don't think it would be bad to use an optimized string section. Darcy James Argue wrote: On Thurs

I have a similar problem. (WinFin2K3) If I use repeats in a piece of music & then try to save it as a .mid file, it will go into an infinite loop. This is *not* playback; this is generating the .mid file. I get an hourglass and it does not stop - I have left it for a very long time & must "End

[Finale] Repeat tool causes infinite loop

If you set the repeat tool (end repeat measure) to "always repeat" it will go into an infinite loop when you try to play it. The result is you can never play it. In fact you have to abort the program to stop it, possibly losing recent changes. The "stop play" button has no effect, at least not in

Re: [Finale] F2004 bug: changing octaves on me

Sounds bad if it turns out to be a bug. My suggestions: (1) Make sure that there is no staff style applied to the particular measures in question, and if so, see what the options are set to. (2) Perhaps it would help to turn off all of the "check measure for..." options in the Speedy dialogue, sin
