Thanks! I've been using Finale for many years and I never bothered with some of these useful features.

Thank you Scott for these great lessons. Is there a way to change the size of the chords displayed?

Hi Dr.watson
Thanks for great teaching.
By creating chord symbol above the blank measure ,Can finale show the notes of chord on that measure on piano staff?

How do you do major 7

[@ScottWatsonMusic]

There are several conventional ways to indicate a major 7th chord, such as CM7 and CMaj7. Also, some use a triangle symbol for “Major.” To see all the chord suffixes in Finale, type your chord as C:0 - the :0 opens the Finale Chord Suffix Library. Then, just choose the suffix you want.
