I wonder whether there would be interest to start a discussion about
printing, binding and finishing scores and parts.
Just to start this let me describe what I typically do.
I have a HP 5000 printer, so I can print large sheets pretty easily. So
I prepare all my scores and parts as PDF bookle
I have to transcribe a piece with a plenty of 16th's triplets in it.
The fastest way to do that without a MIDI keyboard?
Metatools?
As I never used a metatool before, can any kind soul deeply explain
how to do that?
Many thanks in advance

Yes, that's what I do, of course. Fn+return in the laptop for windows with text
fields.
Thanks.

Actually clicking anywhere in the window works for me. I'm surprised it is
Apple's bug, because it only happens with Finale buttons. Thank you.

Pressing "escape" for cancel is even one less keystroke than apple-.
I have found that keystrokes are quicker and more accurate than
mousing around.

I agree with you and I too, use the keyboard a lot -- escape and all...
However, sometimes I'd rather click, and if I want to click, I should be able
to do it instead of dealing with bugs.

If you are using Speedy Entry, caps lock will lock the rhythm value
so all you have to do is play the pitches in on the MIDI keyboard one
at a time. Saves tons of keystrokes.

Thanks but I specified "without a MIDI keyboard"...

I use plastic coils and an Akiles punch (bought from Nick Carter) and
find them to be quiet, strong and practical.

Marcello,
It's difficult without a MIDI keyboard. However, if there are strings
of 16th triplets I'd suggest changing the time signature to something
like 6/8 or 12/8 and use the correct time signature for show. You
only have to indicate a few of the triplets with a 3 to get the idea
across.

The plastic coils I got for the CoilMac are sturdy and quiet. I have never
broken one yet. Combs, on the other hand, ARE noisy and fragile.
Ah, I was
It works without a MIDI keyboard in Speedy as well. The alphabetic
keypad takes the place of the MIDI keyboard.
Strangely, in 2009 Mac, I can't get the Caps Lock to work. I have
used this before, and it worked great. Does anyone know what I am
missing, or is it broken?

Yup, I forgot to plug Nick! I got mine from him, too, and it is great
and competitively priced.
