The problem makes a treble staff 2nd line "G" look like a 2nd space "A."
FWIW, I vote for:
1) dotted quarter rests in compound metres
2) 4r 8 8 8r 8r in 6/8
3) 4r 8r 8 even in 4/4 (with its curious single beam for 4 eighths).
The point of using quarter and dotted quarter rests is to reduce the
number of rests that could be mistaken for a main beat. This is the one

Hey all --
Working mostly in FinMac07, at the moment 08. I haven't been able to
figure out, when working in a linked part, how to create a text block
that appears in only the part I'm currently working on, without being
created in all the other parts and the score as well. Is this
possi
I've done this in FinMac07. Create the text block in the score or
the part, and hide it in the score. Control-click the handle for the
option. IIRC, the keyboard command is Cmd-Opt-Cntl H (or maybe L).
My mind is fuzzy right now.

You're right, there should be an easier way. I haven't had the need
enough to find the fastest workaround, and I have found it irritating
to create it, hide it, show it, and then hide it again. If I used it
more, I might be motivated to explore it more thoroughly, but I've
only dabbled wi
Hi Michael,
When in part view, use the override key when invoking the contextual
menu to hide the text expression *everywhere*, then, without using
the override key, use the contextual menu to show the text expression
only in that part. It's a two-step process, but it's much faster than

Thanks very much, Dennis and JD! That's what I needed to know -- I
tend not to use contextual menus, though I should more often. I'd
definitely speed up my work.
BTW -- this method with the text blocks seems odd to me -- shouldn't
there be a way to toggle back and forth (as a preference,
Hello,
can you advise on a font with gregorian neumes that might work on windows
and with notation programs? So far I saw Gregoire and a couple others,
which seem to generate their characters themselves, without any font
involved.
Thanks,

Why not create the text block so it is attached to a measure of that part?

Vinny I'm going to archive this for the next time Finale falls silent.
I don't need it today, because... well, I remembered how I solved it
before: Namely, it just started working again for no reason at all.

Dear List,
No one responded to this query. I wonder if the list received it.
A composer friend wants a piano reduction of a complex 35 page
score for 3 orchestras. Page size 11 X 17.

what I would try is this.
make a copy of the file and open it
run the Data Check utility - all options under file maintenace checked
resave the file and then try the reduction procedures
if it fails again I would then...

Thank you Ray for looking and pondering.
Thank you Aaron, for what seems like the answer. We'll try it tomorrow.
Thank you Cecil for the Mus.D. dissertation and humor.
