I hadn't thought about that bit. I was thinking more about a lengty text expression that occurs several times in the same score, where in a couple places it needs to be compressed by breaking the string in two, and stacking the former part on top of the latter. Upon selection of such an expression, if it contains an embedded CR-LF, in the same dialog box as one presently finds "allow individual positioning", one would also see an option "ignore embedded CR-LF". I suppose it could get really fancy, and be made to work in conjunction with "allow individual positioning", but I'm not really asking for that much. > And what is the advantage over simply allowing line breaks in text > expressions, *period*?

Well, first and foremost I'd like to see the capability of linebreaks; if the mechanism were introduced it's certainly feasible to create two expressions, one without embedded CR-LF's, and the other one with, and use the appropriate one at each point. However, as I like to think of myself as a frugal individual, if a switch can be set so that these are ignored in some places, but not in others, then one can get by with one expression instead of two. ns _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
