Wait for your 2k4, it does it correctly.

Not a very practical response, sorry. I need this very soon.

Does anyone else know the ins and outs of the manual spacing? Why doesn't "incorporate manual spacing" appear to work in this case? How can I stop Finale from "correcting" my spacing?

 Subject: [Finale] Music spacing oddity


Can someone help me here?


 FinMac 2003, I have dotted notes in two layers at the interval of a
 second, and the lower note has a flat. Finale spaces this by default
 with the Layer 2 note WAY to the right to avoid colliding the flat
 and the upper note's dot.

 In Special Tool I have moved the dot of the upper note to the right,
 and I have moved the flat on the lower note to the left, then I used
 the Special Tool to move the Layer 2 note back left where it should
 be. This leaves a big gap at the end of the measure, but I can't get
 Finale to respace the measure properly. I have checked "Incorporate
 Manual Spacing" hoping that it would, but it just moves the lower
 note WAY to the right again. In fact, it moves it even when I HAVEN"T
 invoked Music Spacing. I realised this when I checked back a few
 minutes later and somehow Finale had decided to do something about it
 while I wasn't looking.

 What do I do? I haven't even put music in other staves yet, and I am
 going to have to align all this at some point, but I can't even get
 two layers to align properly!

Thanks in advance.

 Christopher
