NOTATIO

Just to keep up to date, Finale has released the .4 update to version 27. It offers an unusually lengthy list of fixes and minor improvements; but this has been marred by some installation problems, and on Windows, the loss of access to third-party PDF generators, like Cute PDF. Scoring Notes has a ...

Dorico uses XML under the hood to describe and store most of its data: this includes Expression maps, Engraving Options etc; but also notation objects like cle...

one post 14 months ago I listed 20 requests with what I thought were very detailed descriptions, and almost the entire list pretty much still stands as requests. #10 made it into Dorico 5 so that can be crossed off. #12 did for roots but not suffixes... I get it. The dev team is shorthanded, plus t...
