Title: Staff lines
Post by: Mark on 2002-04-24 07:05 pm
I've used NoteWorthy Composer in Windows 95, 98SE, Me, 2k and XP Pro. I only encounter this problem in 2k and XP but do not have the problem in 95, 98SE or Me. When I scroll to the right the staff lines disappear and I can't get them to come back! I've tried using F9 to refresh the score which doesn't work and I've also tried running it in compatibility mode. If it helps my graphics card is a SiS 730. Please help this is really annoying!!
Cheerz.

It's worth a try to get the latest video drivers. As near as I can tell, the one you want for 2k is 5.13.01.2030 and for xp 6.13.10.2030. Both are available here (http://support.packardbell-europe.com/support/download/drv/CAT690.asp?c=ap) and probably elsewhere.

Good luck!

Thanks I downloaded the update drivers and now it works completely.

You're welcome, glad you got it working. (For future reference, the magic word is "Google") ;-)

Yes Google is the magic word, and if you try country codes, it works even better! I was trying to get another copy of AP Instrument Tuner after I had to uninstall it. The company server would not let me download it, and it finally disappeared completely. Fortunately, simtel.ca or however you spell that shareware site had uploaded a copy onto their server.

I just installed Virtual PC 7 and Windows XP Pro on my 12" Powerbook G4 (Mac laptop) last night. The first application I installed in the virtual Windows machine was NWC. And lo and behold I loaded a couple of sample files and saw this very same problem. I'll see if any of the suggested remedies work this evening, hopefully......

See faq #77 (http://www.noteworthysoftware.com/composer/faq/77.htm): Disappearing Staff Lines

Yep - followed the FAQ and like a poster in another thread, two clicks
back from maximum acceleration did it. It is really odd, though, to be
typing this into a window in Safari (my main Mac browser) while NWC is
printing a file from Win XP in another window on the very same
laptop....:)
