What it does

This category allows you to customize the appearance of all of Finale’s palettes as well as customize the background color. You can change the size and style of all the tool palettes and menu bars, as well as when you want them to appear based on the tool selected.

Size: Large • Medium • Small. You may want to change the size of your palettes from the default size to better fit within the area of your screen. You may also want to specify larger tool icons for higher quality graphics. Choose large for the highest quality graphics, which will display tool icons at 32x32 pixels. Choose medium for medium quality tool graphics, which will display at 26x26 pixels. Choose Small to specify the smallest tool size with minimal graphic quality. The small palette size will display the tool icons as they appeared in versions of Finale prior to Finale 2003. You must restart Finale before these new settings take effect.

Note: After changing palette size and restarting Finale, you may notice the palette configuration has reset on your screen. You will need to reconfigure the palettes so they fit optimally on your screen after resizing them in the Program Options.
