I asked about clearing manual spacing, not note position specifically, or beat charts specifically. Both of those are manual spacing of notes, and that was the original question. > . . .

Your reponse was the non sequitur, not mine. The topic was clearing manual note positioning, and you reply to my observation that it takes two steps by saying that it is often useful for it to be two logically separate steps. Nothing *I* said implies that I would think otherwise. Yet, your answer didn't really answer my question, either. > Now you seem to be accusing me of implying something about program design, > but I'm not sure what.

There are at least two different methods for that (other than simply dragging the notes in Speedy), and what is clear from the responses is that there is no command in Finale for blocking an area of music and with one command clearing any manual spacing. I have the answer to my question now. And it looks like the basis for a feature request. -- David W.
