I'm trying to put some chords on my chart. I'm attempting to use the suffixes in the jazz character set and the key combinations don't do what they're supposed to do. What am I missing here?

Thank you,
David

What shortcuts are you using, what are they supposed to do, and what are they doing instead? Also, what version of Finale and OS?

This is becoming a pattern: I think something doesn't work I spend hours on it and then I post. Shortly thereafter I realize what (who) the problem is.

I was confused because the chord suffixes don't appear until after you unclick the chord. Thank you,

I often discover the "software bug" is located on the top side of the keys, rather than the bottom! ;-)

I'm not sure what you mean by "unclick the chord," but I'm glad you got it sorted out.

Or, neither the hardware nor the software, but rather the wetware! lol
