I have now checked some documents on the result. I can say it is
slightly better than before. It is actually pretty brilliant in my
normal view percentage on screen. However, when viewed at 200%, or,
worse, when printed, slurs are still unpredictable and certain slur tips
still touch the staff lines. It is a complete mystery to me why some do
and some don't. Most or all are perfect at 155% (this is a page width on
my iBook), however, some misbehave at 200% and larger, and also in print.
One way to avoid this is to go from page to page, and in the smart shape
tool, select all, press arrow up, arrow down (and wait quite a long
time). However, this will also make them all fixed, ie non-Engraver
slurs, which is not ideal when working with parts or when changing the
layout.
Still, often this is better than the unpredictable behaviour.
If someone has a plugin which can make all slurs fixed exactly where
they are at that moment, without having to go from page to page.
The problem with Finale is that work arounds are getting so complicated,
time consuming and difficult to remember, that working with it is no fun.
