[comp.sys.atari.st] NOTATOR strange printing problem

ramsiri@blake.u.washington.edu (Enartloc Nhoj) (01/13/91)

I can load xxx.son (226K file) .. select a track... (60 measures)..
play it back.. display the entire notation from beginning 
to end.   I CAN print up to 4-6 measures.. BUT if i request
to print entire track -60 measures.. the machine locks up.

I have removed MULTIDESK and NEODESK *.ACC's ...
makes no difference.  

I copied the files to a backup, zeroed the partition..
recopied them etc.. NO difference...

Strange that i can load, play, and read (notation) the
entire file, but can't print it in its entirety.

Using and LQ800 Epson.

Ran NOTATOR from TOS 1.4 GEM desktop .. strangely, when i
hit the "e" key to go into the notation edit mode, the
machine draws a gray streak and locks up.  Retry from 
NEODESK.. no problems.. 

WOuld like to know that my last 3.5 months of work isn't
but corrupted NOTATOR files..  :-(

Has anyone else noticed a problem with the display of Notator 3.0?
I have what looks like a line of bad pixels running vertically
from the top of the main screen through the STOP button. It seems
to work OK, though.

The problem I am having is with the buffer record - when I use
Shift-Return to recall the buffer into an empty track all of the
notes that I have played are crammed into a short chord on the first
beat! My dealer will only say it "should work". Anyone else run into
this?
