Independent staff/system movements
Moderators: Peter Thomsen, miker
I was assuming, from what I read in Finale Help that using Alt/option moved staves without affecting other staves.motet wrote:That's the way it works--there's nothing wrong with your system.

You certainly had a right to expect that. But it also says
It seems like with Alt it could move only the top staff and grow the system until it bumped into the one above, but alas it doesn't seem to work that way.When you drag or nudge the top staff of any system other than the first, Finale adjusts the distance between systems.

today I got word from MM that the problem I've been experiencing (staff tool - independent staff movement) seems to be a bug on Mac computers. He has verified this on other Macs. I cancelled my appointment with the physicist.

I'm aware of that. Not the top staff.motet wrote:I thought you were trying to move the top staff independently. You can't, which is a "feature" present on Windows as well, not a bug.
