I'm using the latest TGT, which on Win is 2.61, and the shift accidentals
plugin doesn't work at all for me.  My comment on default spacing of
accidentals being too wide was meant to refer to the Finale default for
notes a fifth or sixth apart, which is what I need the TGT plugin for.  It
helps some if I change the default spacing between accidentals in doc
options from 8 to 5 EVPUs, but this one-size-fits-all approach isn't nearly
as good as the plugin was.  I want my plugin back!

BTW, the plugin never did work properly for chords of more than 2 notes, not
a particularly frequent occurrence for me.  It does seem very strange that
this plugin chokes on my system and not on yours.

hey lee,  i'm not getting this crash at all, are you using TGT 2.6? 
not sure it would make a diff, but if not, try updating.  i got over 
my fears and installed it and today and it is running more or less as 
expected, and i think it is even faster on 2012 than it was on 2012, 
don't know if that is possible (?).

i am however discovering that it isn't shifting on some notes, will 
explore more tomorrow, but maybe was only in the viola voices, so may 
have to do with how the PI "reads" the actual pitches... (?)

hm, sounds like you haven't explored the settings in the accis tab 
for accis between 4th, 5ths and 6ths, or the "sixths" tabs which has 
even more fine-tuning.  also, you prob won't need it (the default 
settings work even with my custom font), but you can also adjust the 
values the PI considers to be the default widths of nat b # bb and x.

or if you mean the finale default, you can change this in the doc options.
