I'm using OS 10.10.5 with Finale 2014.5. In editing a score, I want to adjust the lyrics on one staff to avoid a collision with phrase marks. I can move the 3rd triangle, but the lyrics do not change position.
Funny how the program works sometimes. I had written the lyrics straight-through, so verse number wasn't a problem. The layer was correct. But I still couldn't get the 3rd triangle to shift the lyrics in that system until I double-clicked on the lyric. Then it worked.....magic (?) Thanks Dean and Mike for responding to me.
Occasionally I've found that, when the page to the left hasn't completely cleared the margin, I seem to be choosing the triangles for the wrong page.
I have also noticed that on occasion, when I try to click a triangle, it does not "take" on the first try. Am not sure why, but usually a second try does select the triangle.
(In neither of these instances was the question one of verse or chorus number.)
I blame gremlins, who have been known to inhabit computers (the way fairies inhabit country gardens) since the beginning.
