Thanks, Christopher, not a problem. I did actually call tech support the other day and was able to fix my problem by adjusting the default chord alteration font size. It adjusted the size of both root and suffix alterations. Setup Wizard gave me 20 pt EngraveFontSet for this, which I reduced to 15 pt. I haven't noticed anything else thrown out of whack to this point. I also just experimented with parentheses in a suffix and didn't have a problem. Would be curious to know if that changes anything for you.
