NOTATIO

One thing might be very considerable here: why not to create documents with the same fonts? I dislike Finale with Engraver (at this size, perhaps 22 pt is better), and like MuseScore 2 output. I also dislike Opus font... So my judging is very much based on that. That would be hard to do. Not many o...

FWIW, LilyPond follows the same logic as Dorico. MuseScore seems to follow Finale's approach by spacing the lower staff notes more evenly and pushing the first pair of 16th notes together. I'm not a computer with Sibelius or SCORE to see what they do. Any takers? This is the default output in Sibel...

I think that the spacing is determined by the smallest value, even when they are moved. Right?

By the default?

From another thread: Sorry, John. I missed that because of your positive first reaction. Anyway, Dorico does indeed provide settings for this as well as a couple related cases: Skjermbilde 2016-10-24 kl. 23.19.55.png How does Dorico handle this by default? I think Finale makes mistake by forcing :3 ...

No, the smallest box possible. More or less same result with using 1 in line thickness, height and width. Wait, but on your video you use 0, and the box is much larger. Stop video at 0:15. rom time to time I've attempted to have a dynamic within an opaque rectangle. However, the rectangle has alway...

Add in parenthesis: it would be great if you who use Dorico could share (in other topics) more experiences with it (examples or whatever).
This forum can be a good place to share your results with Dorico that could be compared with other notation software (in a friendly way...).

And did you set the Maestro "Space" font annotation boundaries manually or where they created automatically ? Because when I click on auto-annotate nothing visually appears. The "space" symbol has no glyph lines, so it doesn't know where to create reduced boundaries for the FAN....
