Hi gang,

With all of the new options for expression positioning in Finale 2004, I thought it might be fun to have a thread where people could share their preferred settings. (Of course, some people will want to keep their secrets… )

For starters, what do people use for their above-staff and below-staff expression baselines?

(I like 24 pt. above and 30 pt. below as a good starting point.)

What settings do people use for their dynamics? Do you go with Coda's default settings, or have you tweaked them?

(For note expressions, I think Coda's defaults ("center, center") result in dynamics that appear too far to the right. I like "center, left" myself. As for the vertical positioning, I like an entry offset of -9 pt.)

How about markings like "Maestoso," "Poco rit.," "a2," "tacet," "pizz."? Anyone care to share their default positioning settings for these types of expressions?
