Hi again, Everyone...
I'm trying to force 3 measures per system by choosing Page Layout and
then
"Fit Music" and telling it there to put 3 measures per system for the
whole
document. When I hit OK it does so. However, as soon as I click on
any
tool besides "Page Layout" the system locks go away and I again have
systems
with 2 measures or 4 measures instead of 3! What am I missing here?!
Best to mention the version of Finale you are using and the platform.
I am on FinMac 2005b and I just noticed Fit Music in the Page Layout
tool! I never knew it was duplicated there, too, as I had always used
the identical function under Mass Edit.
I just gave it a test drive, and it works perfectly for me. The only
ways I can get the system locks to clear is either manually, i.e., in
Mass Edit hit cmd-U (don't know the PC equivelant) or else Update
Layout after I have set Options>Udpdate Layout Options... to clear
System Locks. I don't imagine you did the first by accident, but maybe
the second?
