Has there been any new development on this? I just tried importing an MP3 and it is still getting the “blip”. DrewFinale wrote: Hi PyroWalker, I’m sorry, I hear your frustration, we’ll get this fixed as soon as we can. Unfortunately, it’s not a quick task, we estimate we need to allocate a full week of development time troubleshoot and resolve the issue. In the meantime, you can still you MP3s in Finale 3D, not just WAV files. You just need to convert your soundtrack to WAV and then back to MP3. Here’s a tutorial that demonstrates the process: <iframe class=”wp-embedded-content” title=”Fixing MP3 audio artifacts” src=”https://www.loom.com/embed/a3c30e578310494a9176c9564a02db20#?secret=nuiHeaVyYY” width=”1140″ height=”855″ frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen=”true”></iframe>

Hey Dan, we don’t have a published list of the column numbers and corresponding names because they’re more or less meant to be meaningless from the user’s perspective. To see what columns are included in a report, you can just go to blue gear ⚙️ in the script window > Select table layout from report template. This loads the column configuration for the report into the script window, allowing you to adjust column visibility, width, and order. If this doesn’t help, can you tell me a bit more about what you’d like to do with the column numbers?

I am looking to see if there is a solution to the scaling issue that I’m experiencing.  On my extension monitor the menu bar icons are extremely large both bars on top take up a lot of space and the drop-down menus no longer scroll, there is an arrow to move the menu up and down. On the main monitor the font is so small it’s hard to read, I’ve zoomed it using the Ctrl button but then the menus are so large the text goes beyond the window.  This is new since I’ve changed computers, I’ve adjusted aspect and ratios with no luck. Please advise. Thank you  Wick

Thank you, that is exactly what I need… you’re the best one

Hi UNICUS Pyro/FX, welcome to the Finale 3D community! I love the photos in your gallery, looks like you’re doing some awesome shows.   The “Track” column in the Finale 3D script window is used to fill both the ‘Sequence’ and ‘Sequence Name’ columns in fireTEK script files. You can unhide the Track column in the script window by going to the blue gear ⚙️ > Hide or unhide a column > Track. fireTEK track values can be integers 0-99 or letters followed by integers in that range (example: “1” and “Trk1” are both okay). For more details, visit the ‘Tracks’ section in Table 2 of our fireTEK documentation.     Tip: Track numbers can also be set by going to Script (menu) > Tacks > Set track…

What about an effect like an willow palm that has gold strobing tail? Peach Strobing Willow Palm is how I would normally write it… would I just write it as Gold tipped strobing willow palm then?

  Curtis B wrote: Just curious, I know the color “Peach” somewhat works for gold strobing effects, but when is “Gold” going to be turned into a color vs. an descriptor/editing term?   Gold implies stars with trails of gold sparks. Gold Tip implies gold colored start without trails of sparks. For example, 3″ Gold Tip Strobing.   References: VDL colors Glossary of VDL Effect Terms

Finale 3D doesn’t simulate colored daytime smoke effects yet. We are working hard to add this effect as soon as we can. In the meantime, some Finale 3D users have come up with creative ways to make effects that look pretty convincing using the effect editor. For example, check out this post: https://finale3d.com/groups/english/forum/topic/finale-3d-smoke-mine-streamer-confetti/

TKFX, thanks for sharing!
