What it does

Finale doesn’t actually embed a graphic in your Finale document when you place a graphic. Instead, it places a link to the graphic’s location on your computer. Use the Check Graphics dialog box to display the location and full name of all graphics files placed into your score.

Scrolling Graphic List: Finale searches for each graphics file placed in the current document. Any missing graphics appear marked with an asterisk in italics. Finale also lists the filename and path for all found graphics. Finale provides the original location and full name of the graphics file that it was unable to locate. Found graphics and their path also appear in the list after any missing graphics in the file.
Select Graphic. Select a graphic and then click this button to display the Open dialog box where you can choose a new path for the selected graphic.
Attributes. Select a graphic and click this button to open the Graphic Attributes dialog box where you can apply positioning, assignment, and other settings for the selected graphic. See Graphic Attributes dialog box.
Copy List to Clipboard. Click this button to copy the contents of the scrolling list into the clipboard. You can then paste the contents into a word processing program, and print the list if you want. This can be useful if you’ll be printing from another system, and want to have all the graphics available when you print the file.
Select Graphic. Highlight a graphic from the list and click Select Graphic to specify a graphic manually.
Attributes. Highlight a graphic from the list and click Attributes to open the Graphic Attributes dialog box where you can adjust the positioning, page/measure assignment and other attributes. See Graphic Attributes dialog box.
Done. Click Done to return to the score.
