[Finale] How do I do this?

I'm trying to do an eighth-note triplet set where two of the three notes are further broken down into three sixteenth-note triplets each. I scanned a hand-written example here: http://gallery.me.com/btr1701#100016 (The one labeled "Music") Any help would be appreciated. __

Re: [Finale] Fonts

Actually, no, Finale can't automatically determine the height of font characters. That's why we made FAN files in the first place. I don't disagree that the tool for editing can be improved, however. On Oct 30, 2008, at 2:29 AM, Johannes Gebauer wrote: Actually, I have never understood why Fi

Re: [Finale] Fingering using articulation tool

I have been editing old files of Christmas carols for students to play. The old files do not seem to have fingering numbers in the articulation library, but I notice that if i open a new file, there are fingering numbers already there. But I guess I can now load my new saved articulation library [t

Re: [Finale] Fingering using articulation tool

Hi Richard Thanks for your fast reply. I'm now able to get the fingering symbols, but can't get the program to bypass the dialogue box, which sounds like it is possible in the manual. Once I've clicked on the Articulation Tool, how can I simply press SHIFT 51 and get my 1st finger symbol onto the p

Re: [Finale] Fonts

Actually, I have never understood why Finale doesn't automatically calculate these FAN files. It shouldn't be difficult to do this from the font itself, and anyone who has done it manually knows this is a really tedious process (and the Finale tool for this is really badly designed). Johannes

Re: [Finale] Fonts

Hi Allen, FAN files are definitely used with articulations! It's a recent change (Fin2006 maybe?) but they are now definitely part of the equation. As you will discover if you import an older file that uses articulations in fonts that do not have corresponding FANs. Cheers, - Darcy -
