On a side note and if you’d not come across it:
Jari’s ‘JW Copy Part Layout’ plugin is tremendous and saves a huge amount of

Yes, I have had Signs and Coda symbols move to a completely different
place after all the staves are locked.
I have also been seeing a weird one that isn't really related to
printing (I hope). I have some parts entered two-to-a-staff using
layers 1 and 2. When I do playback, some of the
Ah, THAT is a strange thing, but I have seen it often! If you move one instance
of a repeat marking, it doesn't move in other parts until you update layout.
You have to jump through hoops a bit to get them to obey where you put them,
and it all changes as soon as a staff has different sizing.
What causes that parsing while printing?
That has bitten me on several occasions.
Reformatting while printing is bad enough as it is,
but reformatting so illogically while printing is
very annoying.
It reminds me of the feature that messes with mm rests
unless I uncheck that program (or document)

There used to be a spacing option somewhere that forced X-number of

I guess my work flow is different from many. I work about 95% in scroll
mode until it is time to do final parts layouts. This seems so much
faster, getting more of the most useful content on the screen,
especially when using staff views aggressively.

What could be going on with the OP is that the default file used to start
the project contained the locks already. A long-term issue with Finale is
that if you create a piece with locked systems, especially if only a system
is locked here and there, when you delete the measures the locks are
Yes, I am sure you are right. But you also have to repeat the break locks FOR
EVERY SEPARATE PART. So this little fix might end up taking a few minutes for a
large orchestra score. And large orchestra scores with voiced linked parts are
exactly the type of file that benefits from having a

Hi all
Just to state the obvious, when moving measures that affect systems 10 and 11
and you do an update layout, you must do so at least from the page that
contains system 10. Update layout doesn't work globally but only from the
current location forward.

Linked parts, I imagine you know that it only means that the parts are
contained in the same file as the score. Voiced means that 2 flutes can share
the same score staff, yet each have their own separate linked part, using the
voicing rules you set up in the part definition. Say, flute 1 uses

Ah, but that's exactly the issue -- you're moving measures by hand to
another system. Finale has used its spacing algorithm to decide where it
thinks measures should go, and you're overriding that. If Finale
*didn't* lock the systems, then your measure would just pop back to
where it came
Often, when I move systems, the file fails to update and shows one system
in two places at once. Alt-U doesn't help. If I exit the file (or even
exit the part I am editing) and come back, all is well, but herein lies the
rub: If I print without doing one of those exits, I get multiple copies

And you can easily clear all locks by selecting the entire score and
doing ctl-shft-L (I believe that is the command on Windows).

To my knowledge, the only time Finale will lock the systems is either by the
keyboard command, CMD-L, or if you physically move a measure to another system
using the old Mass Mover tool, now the Selection tool. Otherwise they stay
unlocked. I know this because there have been many times where
