Re: Resized staff/note and line thickness
It has also been noted that Dorico scales slurs from grace notes, too. You can change the scale on a slur to "Normal" in the Properties, (though it's not always an improvement, given the short compass -- they can look like a dead slug.) I think most computer software has been guilty of jus...
