Thanks for trying!

Well, I'm looking at some other files now that began life in 
WinFin2K3, and they exhibit the same problem. Indeed, now that I look 
at it, I remember it being a problem back when I had the automatic 
update layout turned on.

Well, don't hesitate to tell us, as I may be ignoring something 
obvious. What I've been doing is spacing with with time-signature-
based spacing, then adding the handles necessary to manually space. 
It's not horribly difficult, but the big problem is that once you've 
done that, it's hard to get systems spaced naturally again.

Very annoying.
