2011-02-09 Thread DeliusFan
The problem with just enlarging the existing fermata is that the lines got way too thick and the symbol looked ridiculous at the size I needed it to be. I noticed in my Baerenreiter Mozart scores that they have designed their own narrower line version to place as an "umbrella" over many note

[Finale] Mac JW plug-ins and parts
