[Finale] MacFin2002b Feedback

Seems we could use a general thread on this. One thing I noticed just now -- the items in the "Copy Entry Items" dialog are now in alphabetical order. Although this makes logical sense, it does mean that "Clefs" -- the one item I almost never want copied when I'm moving entry items -- is now h

[Finale] eps options for FinMac 2k4+

I can understand why people are upset that the ability to make eps files from within Finale Mac 2004(b) is a missing feature. I don't understand why people feel they have no options. Here is something that I wrote to the list a few weeks ago and it still applies with the 2004b update: *

Re: [Finale] MacFin2004b in Classic?

Keeping in mind what I said before about FinMac2004, 2004b is noticeably faster, at least so far. For starters, the horrendous, painful lag in drawing smart shapes has been fixed. So, hurray for that, and credit where credit is due. Just when I thought I couldn't possibly stand it a day long

Eric, I *have* a G4 upgrade card for my beige box, running at 533 MHz (which was the best available upgrade at the time I bought it). And I have 768 MB of RAM. Finale 2004 is still incredibly slow, almost unusably slow, even compared to earlier versions running inside Classic. And there is a

Re: [Finale] Re: Enter key, undo shortcut bugs in MacFin2004

For what it's worth, my Enter key problem was entirely user error. I had inadvertently mapped the Enter key to a shortcut in iKey. (I was trying to Enter my way out of a dialog box in iKey, which obviously doesn't work if the "keyboard shortcut" field has the focus. Duh.) The occasional refu

Hi guys, Occasionally, MacFin2004 will stop recognizing the enter key. Just stop. You can't use it in Speedy to replace entries, you can't use it in dialog boxes, it just doesn't see it. Other currently running applications see the Enter key just fine, but Finale doesn't. Sometimes, not ev

As a WinFin2004 user, I find that what Aaron is saying is true, but I am willing to wait for the resolution of the Mac issues, since they have really gotten the shaft from MakeMusic (makemoney, takemoney, whatever they choose to call themselves these days): an OSx version over a year later tha

I've seen it many times in manuscripts and in older editions. It's an abbr. for a rhythmic division in three, in this case a triplet. It occurs also with a various number of dots: two, three, four and six. Alternatively can it be used with dashes. E.g. a "louré" continuo: 4 dashes under a slur,

You might consider asking the composer. I don't understand what it means, but if you're using the default articulation library in Fin2004 (at least, although I think it has been there in previous versions) look at articulation 55 -- that may be what you are looking for, although I don't know w
