Going off an a tangent, may I ask: What good reason is there to use the ossia tool instead of a separate staff?
I haven't tried the ossia tool in at least three years. When I did try it, I remember concluding that it was very clumsy and many things I wanted to do were either difficult or impossible to achieve. After a while, I gave up on the ossia tool and created a separate staff just for the ossia, optimized out for the rest of the score. At the time (I think I was in v 3.7 then), this introduced a few other problems, all revolving around the problem of blanking out the empty measures in the same system as the ossia. But now that we've got Staff Styles to blank out measures, and greater flexibility with barlines, displaying time and key signatures, etc., those problems are pretty much gone. So I'm wondering: Has the ossia tool improved since the old days? Even if it has, what does it offer that using a separate staff doesn't? mdl _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
