Unfortunately I cannot get the dashed line to stop for the center text, instead it always seems to go right through it. Is this a limitation, or am I just missing something?



Johannes,

This is the same for me in FinMac2006b and 2005b. I don't remember it working this way in 2003, which is the last time I used this particular feature, but I may be wrong.

May I suggest lyrics (if you don't have other lyrics in the piece!) as a possible workaround, as you can set the dashes to appear more often, like a dotted line, though that would affect all lyrics in the piece.

Barring that, I think TWO smart lines, carefully placed, is your best bet, just as we have had to do for "dim-in-u-en-do" since about forever. Or perhaps "mor en do" as a Smart Line WITHOUT the dotted lines, which could be added in as two different smart lines afterwards.


Happy Christmas!


Thanks! You too!
