for this, i would also *definitely* use a shape expression (and regularly do). set its positioning in relation to the right barline.
don't use a smart shape, if the measure width and / or layout is changed, the vertical angle (whcih you hope is 90 degrees) may change, and then you may have to adjust all instances of the smart shape. if you apply a shape expression manually each time (place it at the top of your category list for quick access) instead of setting it up as a metatool, its positioning and appearance can later be changed globally if needed. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
