Dear Andrew,
I created a correct (centered at the apex of the cross point) stem
connection for the x note head in Bill Duncan's (and yes, we will
miss him) Salzedo font and adjusted the positioning of the connection
to the Salzedo font half note percussion shape, and everything worked
as it is supposed to for me (on a Mac G5 running OS 10.4). So my
only conclusion is that the ReadMe is mistaken. I should have tried
it first, but I was so pissed off when I read it that I fired off a
missive to MM's tech support, only to have to retract it. However,
the silly loss of font selections when importing Document Options
libraries on a Mac is still there. That's just an annoyance, not a
work stopper/deal breaker for me, but I am certainly irritated that
it remains broken after all this time.

A great relief, if true. To be specific, am I to understand that
the ReadMe assertion that
Document Options • Stem Connections cannot be created, edited,
or deleted on PowerMacs.
is untrue in every particular, so that, if/when I install 2K7a on
my pre-intel Mac I *will* be able to create, edit, and/or delete
stem connections?
If the ReadMe is correct, I would consider this a deal-breaker. I
purchased 2K7 a while back but have not installed it because it is
so buggy. If even 2K7a will not let me, for example, create a
correct stem connection for an X-shaped notehead, then the program
is useless for me and I will have to continue to rely on 2K4--
itself no prize.
