NOTATIO

I doubt it too. Strange.
Keys ∆ and ∂ are mapped, though.

Right.
Sonata, Petrucci and Maestro don't have it.

Do anyone has idea why in all Make Music's music fonts there is no symbol on the keys D and d?

John, I feel exactly the same. About 7 years ago I had a great "privilege" to have my music copied by persons who didn't have idea how to use Finale. So now, when I want to edit that piece, everything is resized in a strange way, starting from staff, system, page, fonts... Now I realize wh...

Hello. Does anyone use MuseScore? I have just tested their version 2, and it looks very promising. Selecting any item on the "page" it is easy to manipulate it by settings provided in the inspector, similar to Sibelius. I have no idea about how good is music spacing, font handling, customi...

John: excellent questions. I am confused by that - confusion!
In Finale, I always set up staff size to be 100%. Than I choose if it will be 7, 6 or 5 mm.
In Sibelius it is simple: staff size is just real number in mm. No reduction.

@David W
John and tisimst have explained it beautifully. John's suggestions are indeed great: once you get it right with help from professional engravers you just keep on that standard.

@john
I am confused: isn't Finale's space the same term "space" in the analog engraving?

I wonder: does it apply for any staff size (4-7mm)? If not, is there any table-ratio (spreadsheet) that we can use to re-calculate the different sizes? ADD-ON Q: How should resized staff be handled in this situation (violin+piano score)? Should the lines in the violin small staff be reduced equally ...

I like this much more than the current Henle's .

Of the flat slurs that I demonstrated in videos, only the last video's slur needs to be flatten. I have been researching about the flat slurs for a while and I think it is one of the most used hidden techniques in old engraving. As far as I know, only SCORE can handle flat slurs (check Ligeti's Viol...
