Tanks allot to Michael and David for answering this question. I will make a
request to winsupport as I find the new setting too narrow, especially for
nested group brackets.

There is no document setting for the group bracket. Anybody who is
bothered by this should write to tech support to request that it be
added! I'm taking my own advice after sending this.

Speaking from the PC world, I don't view drives as consumables with
short shelf lives, either. I have an old Packard-Bell Pentium (yes the
original) which is about 8 years old (or however old the Pentium chip
is) and it has the original drives I put in to replace the original

how thoughtful of MakeMusic) but there are two buttons at the bottom,

I think that for expressions you could play around with the offset
numbers, and if you select "Baseline" rather than "Baseline and Entry"
that you could get them always the same distance from the staff, which
you would determine by the offset value.
