Hi Paul, That's good to hear! I'll look into this. I still think it would be good to know if there is a way to query whether something is at a system end. At least in the version I am using, the proportional spacing is often incorrect in the final measure of a system as well. I can imagine several ways it would be useful to access this information. So, if anyone is clever about this, I would still be interested in hearing about any solutions. Again, I basically have the override I want, but having a function to automatically apply it in the correct case (at the end of a system) could be useful. However I could also see it being the case that this information is not user-accessible.
