Again, be sure to optimize the system before dragging staves around. All inter-system spacing should be adjusted using the "Between Systems" value. One little-known trick introduced in recent versions allows you to respace all the staves in a given system without using a plugin. You just optimize the system, go to the Staff tool, select any or all of the lower handles in that system, and choose Respace Staves from the Staff menu. I find this easier, quicker, and more reliable to use than any of the staff-respacing plugins, but it only works on one system at a time.
Damn, Andrew!
That's the best Finale tip I've come across in ages! This will save me hours of micromanagment in Staff List Manger.
When was this feature introduced?
(Maybe we could put *that* in the quick reference card, too... [grin] )
