The redundant separators are never used. That's why I call them "redundant". >So, >you can't really know if they are redundant or not. Of course you can know. Consecutive hyphens are redundant; they are treated the same as a single hyphen. You're making this more mysterious than it is. -- >That's why I think there should be a STAFF level in the UI.

You've got 512 verses to work with, it's not like you're going to run out. I'm not sure what you want a Staff level for. Would it actually behave differently, or are you just adding a fourth label to the list of the existing three (which behave identically)? Sometimes I do want a verse to move between staves, as in the Gondoliers example I cited earlier, or if I've got a complicated chorus in which parts divide in some systems and are combined in a single staff on others. The point is that I get the choice of where I want to put the text. mdl _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
