However, in 2008 (I haven't checked 2007) the articulations in the suppled default files are much smarter, as there is a new setting to flip them to the correct side when they are applied to layers.

If you are in a jazz or commercial style where you want most articulations above the note instead of opposite the stem, then the new feature won't do it properly and you have to go back to flipping them by hand.

check the settings of the articulations, you can select the behaviour you want in the Position menu

I checked, it won't give me what I need, which is the following:

Accent always above the note, unless there are two voices, in which case I would want the auto-note/stem side positioning to kick in. I can't have it both ways, apparently, unless I use two different accents, which is what I did BEFORE auto flipping in 2008. So I am no farther ahead in jazz situations.

Very useful in classical/traditional situations, though.
