Re: RE: Re: Proofreading Questions
I would love a generic alignment tool that allows you to snap two object's positions together easily, or space things evenly. I would also love a grouping/attaching function so that when one thing is moved another moves right along with it. Oh, yes. A kind of InDesign or Illustrator tool. Snapping,...

Re: Proofreading Questions
Anyone interested in a thread on work-flow? How one works definitely impacts proofreading. Yes, a great idea! In months to come I will do a massive work, and that would be of a great help (also sharing my experiences!). One of my greatest problems is getting over my Arnstein training. We did everyt...

Re: Proofreading Questions
My practice thus far is to proofread at the piano on hard copy only after the piece is completely done. I seem to catch things better than at a desk. Wonderful. The playback can check almost only the pitches. What about missing hairpins, missing slurs... Playing the score is one of the most crucial...

Re: Proofreading Questions
Here's Ted Ross's proofreading system (which I have used quite successfully): Thanks for sharing that. Of course, some of these are a bit outdated with the digital engraving, but anyway good to keep in mind! I always compose by hand and I have a copyist that does the basic job for me. So I use foll...

Re: RE: Re: Note spacing - voice collision in Dorico et al.?
BTW, my question about the spacing of seconds have thus far been ignored by the staff on the Dorico forum. This leaves me a bit worried whether they actually intend for Dorico to handle these situations similarly to Lilypond or not, that is: correctly or incorrectly, at least in my personal opinion...

Re: Font feedback
Consider for example: … instead of: I think your both version of numbers are very beautiful, and can be used as a text font in (my) scores. The open 4 variant is more "old" looking, and closed 4 variant is more after 1900. I would rather use the closed, more straight variant in my music. ...
