Thanks for info on making invisible staff.
I am looking to put my circles and stems (and augmentation dots) with the fret numbers on the tab lines, which is also a pain for positioning; it sounds like you are leaving the rhythm all at the top of the tab staff, as Finale (unfortunately IMHP) does automatically. Am I interpreting your explanation correctly? Your way is easier, (and I guess standard?, if there is such a thing with tab) but it's not really what I'm hoping to do.
Regards,
Bonnie

How do you overlay a non-visible staff? Are you just working in layers?
Not sure I understand the question. The HOW is easy: make a new staff,
uncheck everything in Staff Attributes that you want invisible. Drag it into
place. The staff overlay was primarily to solve the problem of augmentation
dots. Finale tab puts them next to the finger number, not with the stem
above the staff. I copied the visible staff to a new one. At each dotted
note I changed the note or chord to a single note on the top tab line. This
made all of the dots line up on the same horizontal. When they were the only
thing visible I could position the staff so that they were in place next to
the stems.
