| - | | Cross-Stave Checks | | | + | | Cross-Stave Checks | Controls if note material on other staves should be compared with the staff. | |
| - | | Layers as Independent Instruments | | | + | | Layers as Independent Instruments | Controls if multiple layers on a staff should be treated as independent voices, where each layer would require its own set of accidentals. Example: 2 woodwind parts in layers on the same staff. | |
| - | | Chord Lines as Independent Instruments | | | + | | Chord Lines as Independent Instruments | Controls if chord lines should be treated as independent voices, where each line would require its own set of accidentals. Example: chordal string divisi parts on one staff. | |
| - | | Grand Staff as 1 Instrument | | | + | | Grand Staff as 1 Instrument | Controls if a grand staff should be treated as one instrument rather than as 2 (or 3) staves. On Finale 2012, grand staves are controlled by the Score Manager. On earlier Finale versions, the plug-in is guessing that a grand staff is a group with 2 staves with piano braces and a group name. | |
| - | | Independent | | | + | | Independent Octaves on Same Instrument | If set, each octave require its own set of accidentals on an instrument. | |
| + | | Independent Octaves on Cross-Instrument | If set, each octave across the different instruments require its own set of accidentals. | | ||
| + | | Restate Differences After Key Sig Change | Controls if notes that differ compare to the previous key signature should be restated, even if it's in the new key signature. Example: if a 'F natural' appears in C major after a passage in A Major, that's a note that might need a cautionary accidental (since F Sharp is used in A Major). | | ||
| + | | No Courtesy after 1 Measure Rest | If set, if the scan encounters a hole in the music material of one measure or more, all courtesy accidentals are reset after the rest. | | ||
| + | | Restate After Grace Note Accidental | Controls if the main note should get an accidental if the previous accidental was set on a grace note. This option only works within one measure. | | ||
| + | | Courtesy Freeze | If set, freezes the accidental state for the added accidentals. | | ||
| - | ^ Cautionary Parentheses Options ^ Explanation ^ | + | ^ Cautionary Parentheses Options ^ Description ^ |
| - | | On Same Beat | | | + | | On Same Beat | Controls cautionary accidental parentheses where conflicts appear on the very same beat. | |
| - | | In Same Measure | | | + | | In Same Measure | Controls cautionary accidental parentheses where the proposed accidental would be added in the same measure as the reference note. | |
| - | | In Next Measure | | | + | | In Next Measure | Controls cautionary accidental parentheses where the proposed accidental would be added to the measure after the reference note. | |
| - | | In 2nd Measure and Forward | | | + | | In 2nd Measure and Forward | Controls cautionary accidental parentheses where the proposed accidental would be added to the 2nd (or longer) measure after the reference note. | |
