I just spent hours doing just that, and I fail to see how any new
features would be lost if the installation algorithm were to copy, say,
my shortened stem length from 2K4 to 2K7a. Or my choices of fonts for
various items. Or any of several dozen other settings.
The installation does, after all, read the user's midi setup and copy
it to the new program despite great changes in the midi setup
procedure. If it can do that, it can do those other things.
And, oh yes, would it be so hard to have my preferences automatically
copied too?
I lost an entire day of productivity reproducing all this stuff in
2K7a, and I'm *still* not finished. :-(

And on a related topic: is there any way to globally set the *length*
of tie stubs? The only settings I know are for height and inset
percentage.
