To load
a percussion library
We’ve provided a library that contains
percussion layouts with note definitions already configured for you. You can either use the percussion
layouts as they are, or edit them for use with percussion staves in your
document.
- Choose Load Library from the File menu.
- Locate and select the percussion library that
you want to open. The percussion notation library included with
Finale is named Percussion Layouts.LIB. It is located in the Libraries folder
in your Finale folder.
- Click Open. Finale loads
the library into the current document, then returns you to the music.
The percussion layouts contained in the library will appear in the Percussion
Layout Selection dialog box. The most recently loaded libraries appear at
the bottom of the list box.
