I don't like this workaround for several reasons, not least of which is that I then lose the expression's auto-positioning capabilities. Also, while in my case I don't need the expression to print in parts, if I *did* want it to appear in parts, this workaround would make me go into each part and adjust the position of each expression, which is not good. I think the workaround I posted (blank notation staff style) gives a better result. Aaron. ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
Re: [Finale] Fin2006 opaque expression bug
Probably what is happening is that the notes are drawing after the expression. Try attaching the expression to the following system so that it will print after the notes.

Text blocks don't seem to let me do a frame *or* an opaque background, so they're rather useless. Only thing I can think of is to create each one as a graphic and import it, and that's a big pain in the rear.
