new in 1.57e:
Complementary Rhythms

Spacing can create a temporary staff
containing the combined
rhythms from the other staves. With this trick,
you can sometimes
achieve a clearer spacing.
After automatic invocation of Finale's Note
Spacing, the temporary
staff is removed. You can get to see it by
choosing UNDO once.

Split an optimized
staff system in two
|
how to use this plug-in: |
easy inserting of a staff system
needed when some measures have to
be laid out more
generously, but you don't want to reflow the
whole piece.
preserves all system
optimizations, especially those on the
following pages, and moves them further down by
one
system.
|
go into page view and select
the first few
measures of a system. Then select this
command, and it will break the system up,
leaving the selected measures on the first
system, and putting the remaining ones on
a separate one. |
