Well, that's just what I was saying, "when you need a more fine view you zoom in."

To quote you: "REALLY!?" The nudge of a fingering number in front of a notehead is very small since I autoplace them with a metatool. Moving an expression is often much larger. Moving a barline might be another distance entirely. Jari's suggestion that this be an option seems best for the variety of methods. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
