General Discussion / Re: An idea
But if you have a vision for how to make it work on some other platform, please don't let me stand in your way. I bow down to anyone actually willing to write documentation, as it's the thing I like least about the IT world!

General Discussion / Re: An idea
I'm wondering if you've considered building it on the MediaWiki software. It seems to work well enough for Audacity:

General Discussion / Re: Dashed Slur.ms on Mac OS
I'll also see if I can convince the Mac to leave the output at the PS stage and see if the slur renders properly in GSView. I guess I could also export to EMF as well.
Have a great weekend!

User Tools / Re: Colouring Tools
Presumably there aren't that many unique notes that need to be red. Rather than spend the time to write a tool to take all of that into account, couldn't you just run Global_Mod for, for example, all of the F's and then clean up the outliers manually? I'm afraid I can't play with this at the moment, but that would be my approach.

General Discussion / Re: Why does my Noteworthy keep crashing?
- Perhaps there's an issue with the fonts that NWC uses (either the main one or Lawrie's). Maybe you can try uninstalling and reinstalling them?
- Could it be an issue with the default printer? Try making PDF Creator or some such the default printer and see how NWC likes that.

General Discussion / Re: Why does my Noteworthy keep crashing?
firstly, while melismata is correct about running multiple AntiMalware, IIRC Malwarebytes is a non-resident scan on demand tool only so shouldn't be part of the problem.
If you're running the paid version or a free trial of the paid version, then it is indeed a resident scanner. I ran into this on a friend's machine that was "running slow." She'd accidentally agreed to a free trial and was also running Microsoft Security Essentials.

General Discussion / Re: The downside of selectors
I personally don't ever use the toolbars, so my reaction to selectors was "Huh? ... well, whatever", but I understand that not everyone wants to adopt all of the keyboard shortcuts.

General Discussion / Re: Do I need piano or Noteworthy?
Certainly, if the choice is between no music and a backing track from NWC, I'd pick the backing track. But I just don't think it's a reason not to hire a musician. Of course, I just came back from cantoring the Sunday Mass, so you can tell my bias.

General Discussion / Re: I've had it!
I think NWC is slowly evolving to include more and more symbols in its own font, and that should help with pieces that you arrange or write for your groups. The files in the scriptorium aren't really supposed to be distributed like that anyway. (At least not without permission.)

General Discussion / Re: chords with notes of different time values
You are correct that layering would have been the best choice for creating the SATB file that you have. However, you do have several options:
1. Explore workarounds for the parts that need fixing. For example, the construct that you complain about can be fixed like this:
Code: (nwc) [Select · Download]
What I've done here is helped NWC out by chording the soprano part with an eighth rest instead of the eighth note. The rest is then hidden and the eighth note placed after that. The deal here is that NWC essentially sees chords as just a note of the smallest duration within the chord. Once you know that, you can usually use some combination of RestChords with hidden rests to achieve the correct notation.
!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.5,Single)
|Chord|Dur:4th|Pos:0|Opts:Stem=Up|Dur2:4th,Dotted|Pos2:-2
|RestChord|Dur:8th|Opts:Stem=Down,ArticulationsOnStem,HideRest|Dur2:4th|Pos2:0
|Note|Dur:8th|Pos:-3|Opts:Stem=Down
|Chord|Dur:4th|Pos:2|Opts:Stem=Up|Dur2:4th|Pos2:0
|Chord|Dur:4th|Pos:3|Opts:Stem=Up|Dur2:4th|Pos2:1
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End
2. Use layering to just fix the parts that you want. Provided that you don't want to assign different instruments or pan to the different voices that are on the same staves, nothing is stopping you from copying the entire staff onto a new one, turning on layering, and then just fixing the areas that need fixing. For good measure, you can mute the duplicate notes.
3. Use the Parts user tool (part of the starter kit, available here: http://www.noteworthysoftware.com/nwc2/usertools/ ) to try and create separate Soprano and Alto parts so that the music can be layered as intended.
I hope that makes sense. Once again, welcome!

You cannot currently decouple these two fonts. If this ability is important to you, you can submit it to the Wish List.

As a workaround, you could leave the copyright info blank and use a text object (or two) on the very last line of the first page that is positioned low enough that it looks like it is the copyright information.

But building on Haymo's idea, it would be nice to see it converted into a tribute to the NWCers that have passed away. If that is done, I would suggest it be linked to from the main page. I don't think the gallery was linked to from anywhere other than a few forum posts.
