Default Re: Unable to open saved file

Hi Jane,

I should add as well - there is a "cresc." dynamic mark that you can use rather than trying to use lyrics in a non-note location.

To do this,
  1. click on the "Expressions" tab,
  2. and select "cresc." on the tool palette.
That should avoid the problem. To be more clear (I'm afraid I wasn't below), the "cresc." marking in the file was a Lyric text that was not assigned to a note, and this caused the problem. Using the "official" Expressions/cresc. tool works fine.


Again sorry for the bother, but thanks for digging up that bug for us so we could fix it



ttfn,
Sherry

Hi Sherry

Wow, what service and what a result!

Many thanks to you and DH for untangling the fix I got my file into. Sorry to have uncovered a bug !

I suppose that new and inexperienced users like myself sometimes do things in strange ways which must test the software to the limit . I have noted your advice on the standard way of entering a cresc. and hope to finish this song without further mishap.

Thanks again for such rapid and excellent support.

Jane
