2008-11-20 Thread Giz Bowe
Is there any way to globally adjust augmentation dots for eighth rests? There's way too much space between the eighth rest and its dot. The global dot adjustment only seems to work for notes, not rests. I'm using FinWin 2009, although it's been happening since at least 2008. Thanks! Giz
