I've created a template with the desired measure number formatting for use with newly created files but I'd like to save these parameters - similar to a library - so that they may be imported to existing files?

Thanks!

Looking back at my original post, I realize that I didn't phrase my query in the form of a question. Sorry about that.

I would like to change the measure number settings of several files to those depicted in the screen shot. Is there a faster way to do this other than opening each file and changing the measure number settings one by one?

I understood what you meant, but I know of no way of doing it with Finale alone. There might be a plug-in that would help. Hopefully someone will know.

Meanwhile, have a look at Robert Patterson's Copyist's Helper.
