you would like to place the clef change and/or ends where you would like to change back to the original clef. If the selected region begin/ends at a barline, a mid-measure clef is not required and Finale adds the clef change to the left of the barline. See Selecting Music.

Enter). The Change Clef dialog box appears. Notice the numbers in parentheses to the upper left of every clef.These are clef . After highlighting a region, you can simply press one of these letters to apply the corresponding clef. See To use a clef metatool.
- Choose the new clef and click OK. You
return to the document with the clef—which now has a handle—at the beginning
of the staff. Drag the clef’s handle right or left to position it as desired.
The notes before and after it will be renotated automatically.
Mid-measure clefs can also be added by pressing Alt+Shift+C while entering with Simple Entry.
