Yan> Are the scripts for the demo workflow on dynamics available anywhere ??  They really are incredibly useful !!

Not a chance.  I have been following this group for quite a while now.  There have been at least 3 prior (including my own) requests for the scripts you mention.  I have even offered to buy them.  The answer for why these scripts exist, but are withheld, does not hold water.

I continue to follow this group and the development of JWLua in hopes that someone else will create similar scripts.  From what I have seen, those using JWLua are doing so for no other reason than exploring ways to alter Finale files without using the Finale GUI.  I have not seen a single, practical application of JWLua… other than the scripts demonstrated on YouTube, which are not available to anyone other than their author.  Think of those videos as, "Look at what I can make Finale do (which it should do on its own), you cannot, and I'm not sharing or selling them."

I continue to spend 90+% of my time in Finale making crescendos, decrescendos, and dashed ties look as they should.  Engraving copper plates was probably faster.
