Program Options dialog box

How to get there

From the Finale 2010 menu, choose Preferences, and then Program Options.

What it does

The Program Options dialog box lets you configure Finale’s program-wide settings. Click a category on the left to see its corresponding options appear on the right side of this dialog box. For example, click the Save category to specify whether to save your preferences automatically when you exit Finale, or only when you explicitly use the Save Preferences command. You can make as many changes as you like before returning to your score by pressing the Apply button when you have finished changing the settings for any category. The settings in this dialog box are saved in the Finale.INI file (in your Finale folder).

• OK • Cancel • Apply. Click OK (or press enter) to save the new settings and return to the document. Click cancel and you will be prompted to save or discard unapplied changes. Click Apply to save the selected changes in your dialog box and keep the Program Options box open.
