Part Names in Linked Parts

There is a special text insert designed specifically for use as the part name in linked parts. This text insert already exists in most new files, however, if you are opening a file created in Finale 2006 or earlier do the following to add part names to all of your parts:

1. If you haven’t added parts to your score, do so now. See To create linked parts. See that parts are named as desired in the Manage Parts dialog box (where the part names are derived from).
2. From the Document menu, choose Edit Part and choose any part.
3. Click the Text Tool .
4. Double-click where you would like to add the part name. An empty text block appears with a blinking cursor.
5. From the Text menu, choose Inserts, then Part/Score Name. The part name appears on all parts as well as the score. To edit the font, size, or style of the part name click a part name handle, from the Text menu choose Edit Text, make the desired changes and click OK. Changes apply to the part name in all parts. Now, you may want to hide the part name on the score.
6. If you’d like to hide the part name insert on the score, from the Document menu, choose Edit Score.
7. Right-click the part name (“Score” by default) and choose show to uncheck it. “Score” (or whatever this insert is named in the File Info dialog box) fades a bit indicating it is hidden and will not appear in the printout.
