[Finale] square corners in Shape Designer

2004-01-26 Thread PKeys2002
(There is probably a more simple way to create brackets with square corners, but this is the only way I'm aware of.) Does anyone know how to fashion square corners in the Shape Designer? In the Shape Designer, at 200%, the line tool resists all attempts to achieve a square corner and the bracket

I think you can redefine the combination of Vertical position and the Handle positions to yield the articulations in a line, and then use Mass Edit -- Move Articulations by replacing the old articulations with the new ones (the new positioning of the old ones). I once tinkered with articulation

To use your serial MTP2 in OSX, you do NOT use the MOTU driver. You use the serial coremidi driver that you can download from either GeeThree or Griffin. This driver is *in addition* to the OSX serial driver software. Then you set up your midi interface in AM Setup by selecting the serial midi
