Seems that you are a beta tester...? :)

I'm not, actually, and I don't think the development has gotten that far. I've been following Daniel's blog and the development of SMuFL closely, though.

Here's the Brahms snippet with small clefs touching the barline. I even put in a tenor clef at the end of the cello part for good measure. (I know the accidentals in the key change are way too close together. I usually use a special natural symbol for this, but don't have it in the new font.)

Octo, to answer your question of how to use these clefs in Finale (or any other software): There is really no way at present, except hiding the real courtesy clefs and replacing them with expressions. It' tedious if you have a lot of them.

I know that LilyPond and MuseScore utilize true courtesy clefs.

Thanks for pointing that out, tisimst. Yet another plus of the available open source software.
