But I think that such things are the main basis in the problems any of us have (and the concurrent complaints) with any/all user-interfaces. We think they're great and intuitive when their logic follows our own, and we think they're stupid/poorly-developed/counter-intuitive when their logic

Hello, I use Finale 2005, and just upgraded to Mac OS 10.4.4 from 10.3.9. I deleted that apple.com.ATS folder, as instructed. Most of my fonts show up fine, but I noticed, in the first file I opened, that an Engraver font accent-with-staccato shows up as a box in its flipped form. The regular
