Eric,
Not only the slashes, but also the one measure repeat, (and maybe the
rhythmic notation too). And I so like the softened lines of these
characters that I'd be loathe to lose them. Anyway, seems that we
wont have to.

But if it is JUST the slash symbol that is causing the problem,
can't you substitute it for the Maestro one and still keep your
chord symbols????
Amazing that this would be a problem.........

Apparently - this was the culprit, and MM says that they can cure
it by going through the Generate Parts dialog. Since I was using
their template that already had the parts generated, I had no
reason to go through that process. I used the template in order
to use as much of MM's prepared material as possible, thinking
that that would be likely to help me avoid problems that I'd
create by lack of familiarity with the new way of doing things. I
will try this later with an older score - created in 2k7 beta, and
see if the Generate Parts operation circumvents the problem.
I'd hate to abandon the ChordSym font. I really love it.
I like it so much that I'll stick with 2006, if we can't figure
out how to make it work in 2007. But we may be a little hasty -
let me try this later and I'll report back about the results.
But wouldn't this problem be an all kinds of other alternate
fonts as well? What if one was using November, or Swing, or one
of the other fonts out there? MakeMusic needs to address this bug
ASAP.
As far as I can see, this is largely a Staff Styles issue -
directly related to 2007 not recognizing the ChordSym font. Maybe
this is only true when the parts have already been generated
before the Staff Style is applied to the score. If this is the
case - it's pretty simple to work around it. I'll let you know as
I learn more.
Chuck
