[Finale] Bracking Slurs and Staff Lines

2004-09-16 Thread Giovanni Andreani
I'm working on a part what needs a lot of fingering marks most of which overlap slurs and staff lines; which would be the best way to brake lines and slurs in a way to leave a little empty space around the fingering numbers? Thank you Giovanni Andreani

This is a good point. For a slur to be broken (using either method offered here), the slur must be measure-attached. Johannes Gebauer: Staff lines can be broken by using Expressions with opaque enclosures. However, I don't think those will cover slurs, at least not in the print-out.
