If "incorporate manual positioning" is checked, then tweaks to spacing inside a measure are preserved proportionately when Update Layout changes measure widths. > Is it possible to lock measure widths?

No. Update Layout affects only the width and number of measures in systems. It has no effect on relative spacing adjustments inside a measure (regardless of what is checked in "manual positioning" or Automatic Music Spacing.) _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
