RE: [Finale] Still having trouble with chord spacing

Javier, Are you *sure* that you have an original Radeon, and not a Radeon 7000? Do you have an AGP Radeon or a PCI Radeon? Are you plugging in *both* monitors to the Radeon? (That would be weird, since the default video card that came with your G4/733 is perfectly good. Unless you needed *

Hi again;   I was able to use the Measure tool to change the horizontal size of a measure, but so far I have not figured out how to change the placement of notes within a measure. For example, suppose I have a quarter note, then half, then a quarter. I would like to move the half note over to the

Yes, I own one and I have successfully used in all possible combinations: two VGA monitors (using the DVD to VGA converter) and one monitor plus video composite. If you are using two monitors you have to disconnect the video output, otherwise the image is dimmed. I am using a G4/733 with Mac OS 9.2
