Basic help
- The Fingering Diagram Builder doesn't provide any fingering reference. If you’re looking for premade fingering charts, try the Woodwind Fingering Guide.
- The Fingering Diagram Builder, regrettably, does not fully support all web browsers at this time. It definitely does not work in Internet Explorer version 8 and earlier, and is buggy/unreliable in Internet Explorer versions 9 and 10. It may also break in some older versions of other browsers. If you are using Internet Explorer or an outdated version of another browser, please consider upgrading; it's free, easy, and only takes a minute.
- To use the Dropbox functionality, you will need a free Dropbox account.
- Please report problems or make suggestions via email or Twitter. Thanks!
