Re: How effect two moves separate affixed on the same note, fingering and cord cello

Karl - Thanks for the pointers. I have many 2.4 scores with default font text tediously sized and positioned, so would like to use, in 2.8, exactly the 2.4 default font. I've been unable to determine what that is. It looks very close to, but not exactly, cmr10 (roman upright medium).

It's good that you don't send long examples, but please send complete examples that people can try directly, without having to fill in a lot of empty slots. I don't have the time to fill in notes in your example to try it myself, but one hint would be to expicitly specify the Staff contexts you

The fonts in 2.4 belonged to the European Computer Modern family, i.e. a version of cmr extended with all Latin1 characters. For lyrics, the bold-narrow version was used, but for text scripts and titling it was ecmr as far as I can remember, so it should be identical to cmr. /Mats Quoting
