Andy McKeeman, Pyro_86840000,   Good news, I spoke with PyroDan at Spirit of 76 this morning and he graciously offered to add missing items and make some improvements to simulations in his catalog.

API Interface Wish to have a API Interface to request and update available items from different external systems. I now its a pro feature but it think a synch Possibility to other system could be important for everyone.

Perfect! Thanks

Thankyou 👍🏼

Hi Mark, great question. In the Pro version of Finale 3D, you can customize your reports by adding a conditional formatting expression to highlight rows by address. Here's a quick video tutorial: https://www.loom.com/share/0e4769c8cfdb45b58a0068eb903e8be3

Hi Pyro_14440000, we will add support for newer versions of SketchUp as soon as we can. In the meantime, you can easily convert a model using the free, online version of SketchUp. Here a quick tutorial video:   UPDATE: As of February 2023, it is no longer possible convert models to the 2018 format using the free version of the SketchUp modeling software. At this time, the only known solution for converting models to the 2018 format is using SketchUp Pro. Finale 3D will be updated to support new formats as soon as possible. In the meantime, if you don’t have access to SketchUp Pro, you can send a model you would like to use to support@finale3d.com and a member of the Finale 3D team will convert it for you.   UPDATE: As of April 2023, Support for SketchUp 2023 models has been added to Finale 3D. To get this improvement, visit finale3d.com/download and download and install any release of Finale 3D published on or after April 27, 2023.   https://www.loom.com/share/309bf796c3da42af80c486143defc3a2

Hi Andy, you're totally right, the simulation for "Party On" isn't even close. PyroWalker is correct, some sims are just placeholders, but even as a placeholder this one is a bit embarrassing. Spirit of 76 maintains their Finale 3D catalog, I'll reach out to them and ask them to make another push to fix up the cake sims. We are also working on a project to improve consumer cakes and add new ones. The goal is to add 1,000 good quality consumer cakes. It's a big undertaking, so it will take some time. In the meantime, if you'd like to learn how to create your own cakes, check out some of the other forum topics on this subject:   https://finale3d.com/groups/english/forum/topic/how-do-i-create-the-500g-demons-fury-consumer-cake-in-finale-3d/ https://finale3d.com/groups/english/forum/topic/how-do-i-create-the-500g-sparta-consumer-cake-in-finale-3d/ https://finale3d.com/groups/english/forum/topic/2-cakes-i-need-help-with/

In the script editing I can see you can “highlight every other row in light grey”, is it possible to change it to do every other cue ? if that makes sense ? thanks Mark.

Hi Drew, We need to import a stadium model in finale3D. Since few weeks, all models in 3D Warehouse are noted 2020, 2021, 2022. Bu we can only import 2018 or 2017 models... How can I do? Thanks,
