Using two monitors and loving it. Mac Powerbook G4 with built-in widescreen LCD connected to a 21" Sony gives me 1280x854 and 1600x1200 side by side (they put nice video cards in these laptops these days). While I really use the setup more in other programs (Logic, Reason, Photosop, etc.) its

I am using two monitors, and is great to have several pieces open at the same time, to have two different views of the same one, etc. One is 19 inches and the other 17. As Robert I could not go back to only one... Javier. > Anyone using two monitors with Finale, and if so, what's the benefits fr

Thanks for all the responses! (They were very helpful). My upgrade to Win XP is a success. (The only remaining "issue" seems to be my scanner, and a new CD of drivers is in the mail.) Finale works great--MIDI works in both directions (I have a SoundBlaster Live, connected to a MIDI keyboard; al

I frequently work with 11 X 17 scores. If I am using scroll view I set the two monitors horizontally so I can see the maximum number of measures. In page view I set the monitors (virtually) at the vertical and I can view an entire page at 100%. I use a trackball with acceleration which means that ,
