If you set the Measure Number font to "fixed" (I use 10 or 9) then it looks right in both the score and the parts. Normally, part staff heights are larger than the score, and measure numbers of UNfixed size change size so that they look too small on the score, or too large on the parts.

Christopher: I had tought of this. But what if somehow it is not exactly how I want it to look like in Parts for example. Maybe I prefer it a little bigger in Parts. Or smaller. I mean, these limits regarding flexibility in Finale are new to us, and I don't like not being able to do EXACTLY what I want to.

David: I'll test your method, but the first thing that strikes me is that the whole linked part is supposed to be a time saver, and even if it works it's way longer than just specify the font size for measure number for Score and Parts once. If I have a piece with many regions, repeats with first and second endings, I will have to do it all twice (although it is very fast with Roberts mesure number plug- in). If I do a change in the piece and need to adjust measure numbers, this will be more complicated to avoid differences from parts to score. These workarounds can only be used as we await for MM to correct some flaws in the design of linked parts (BTW most of it is IMO pretty well thought of). Isn't it strange that almost (All?) all unlinkable items containing fonts (typeface, style and size) are not modifiable by design. You can sometimes unlink their position, or show/hide it, but do nothing with the attributes of the font. This is a major limitation for me.
