If you have a very slow computer, Finale may become slightly more
sluggish. But it's really not an issue on any computer with a 1 GHz
processor or faster.
It's not only about speed.

Noel, Brennon,
I strongly recommend _not_ selecting this setting (reflow+remove

it impossible to lock systems -- they will be unlocked immediately by
"Auto Update Layout."

Checked.
Brennon,
You'll figure this out pretty quickly.
You might want to turn off "Maintain System Locks" unless you have
already done some page layout work that you don't want to lose. In
my case, I save this part of my work until I have the whole piece
done in scroll view. (That's just the wa

Hi gang,
Chuck got it right concerning "Update Layout" (command-\ on a Mac).

Is this an "update layout" problem? Try going to the edit menu and
choosing "Update Layout", and see if that cures the problem. If you
like, you can select "Automatic Update Layout" further down in the
edit menu, and Finale will take care of this in the background. I
