It happens I've just been mucking around in system scaling issues. Effectively, there is no difference between using the staff height or using the percentage. They combine to form an effective percentage that behaves the same, irrespective of which way you enter it. (Finale even shows you the effective percentage in a non-editable text field.)
So, it boils down to whichever is easiest for you. One thing to consider, though, is the fact that at least some versions of JW Space Systems do not work if you change the staff height from 96 evpu. Quite possibly Jari has updated it since I got it, but at one time it was a problem. I think JW Space Systems has largely been replaced by new features in Fin03, so he may not have updated it. BTW: starting with Fin01, you have much more control if you set all your system margins to zero, use 100% page sizes, and scale systems instead. It's something of a paradigm shift for page layout. And speaking of page layout paradigm shifts, I'm minutes away from an announcement, so let me go back in my hole for a while... -- Robert Patterson http://RobertGPatterson.com _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
