How many is that? At most a couple dozen? That you have to change one time in a 
template? I've found that with any new Finale feature, I have to alter it to suit my 
taste.

My experience is that you do occasionally have to manually adjust the vertical  
position of some expressions assignments, esp. when the note has an articulation that 
needs to be avoided.

That's just flat wrong, unless a new bug crept into the final release. (I don't 
actually have it yet.)

I don't know which real world you live in. In the one I live in, automatic expressions 
are perhaps *the* most useful new feature in the upgrade. I'm assuming we both live in 
the same real world, so I figure either there is some basic misundstanding here (most 
likely) or some grotesque bug that wasn't in any of the beta versions.
