Hi Forum,
I've updated to the latest version. Lot's of chance - icons, submenu's etc,

PRoblem or bug.

When in page view - Losseleaf style : Current page only - I normaly was able to force bars either to the next system or next page via keyboard command arrow up arrow down.
This doesn't work now on my mac (Mac mini (2018) OS Big Sur vers. 11.5.1

Sorry, can't help you on Mac but it works on Windows. However, do you happen to have the caps lock or number lock pressed?

Hi,

Thought about that as well  no caps lock.
whats your experience so far with the new version?
It seems they have moved a lot of the commands?

I works as it should on my Mac. Have you tried resetting preferences?

Hi Mike,

Just to clarify (im not native english speaking)  :-)
You can move measure from page to page using arrow on the keyboard?

As you alluded to in your original post,  the up-arrow/down-arrow commands move measures to the former or next system, not to the next page, unless each page shows only a single system.

Point taken,
but from my perspective this is the problem I can't move measure between systems

You have chosen the measure with the Selection Tool rather than simply being in the measure via another tool, I expect.

I admit, I am stumped why what you are doing is not working as you expect.

Bo,

"It seems they have moved a lot of the commands?  ...

yours"

On my Windows machine Finale 27 is almost the same and works the same as Finale 26.3 and earlier versions. I would have said "exactly' the same except the icons are a bit different and a few minor tools. It (27) works well. I don't have any big issues now. I did at the first, for instance, it didn't want to install Garritan as you would expect. But MM tech sorted it for me quickly. Perfect Layout upgraded PL to the smufl fonts and I have Noteperformer 3 running too. All is well.

 

I am sure you just got some little something out of wack because the arrow keys should work. Sorry I can't help on your Mac.

Bo just a thought came to me. You are in the selection tool when you try to move a measure with the arrow? The keyboard assignment changes with different tools are selected.

Sorry I am out of suggestions. You might have to ask MM tech.

Bo,

Try this: open a new default doc. Click in the last measure to select it. Hit the down arrow. Did the last measure jump to the next page? It worked for me.
