Chuck,

His are just "8---------" and "15---------" (above or below). The font is
Revere (my revised version for Finale).

I thought of a custom shape, but it still means replacing them all. Guess I'm
gonna have to do that anyway.

Convincing him he's wrong? Oh, man, I have SO many places in this score where
I wish I could do that... he wants "wraparound" slurs, too, with flat tops
(from bass clef, wrapping up around treble clef, and back to bass clef --
kinda looking like a chef's toque). That's so far totally out of the question
-- too few nodes on Finale slurs. And huge columns of stems that go from 15vb
to 15ma. And completely phrased-based note values -- parens are beams:
q••,e•,e•,e•,(16•,16•),(16,16+16•,16),16•,(16•+16),(16,16•,16•) against
q,(e•,16),(e,e),(16,e,16),(16,32,16,32),(32,32,e,32,32),(32,16•),(16,32,32),(32,32,16),(32,32,16).
 And, and, and... MY LAST CLIENT.

Dennis
