I'm only now getting around to learning linked parts. I have run into the standard limitations -- measure numbers is the HUGE one. Why oh why would Finale want to force the same measure number sizes and other choices on parts and scores? Anyone have a workaround other than a separate score just for parts?
Although measure numbers are not a problem for me, I personally don't think that linked parts are at all usable without separating score and parts in two files. It still saves me from having to deal with numerous parts files, so it is an improvement to have linked parts, but in their current implementation I find them far too limiting to keep everything in one file.
The one major advantage for my work is actually another: I can make draft parts while I am still working on the score, and not lose anything later. At that stage one file for all is fine, but for the publication stage I always have two files.
