Copyist's Helper help   Message List

Is the following possible: I'd like to use Copyist's Helper to do
everything it does to measure numbers *except* put ranges under
multimeasure rests. So I'm running it with "Center Ranges..."
unchecked. The problem is it seems to be treating boxed measure
numbers at the start of a multimeasure rest the same as unboxed
numbers. I'm only getting about half of the boxes I'm supposed to get.

Is this a bug? Is there a workaround short of breaking all my
multimeasure rests and rebuilding them afterward? Or am I using it
incorrectly?

If this is relevant I'm not even able to see the remaining two tabs of
Copyist's Helper. When I click on them, I still see the measure number
parameters. (But measure number tweaking is the only thing I'm
interested in right now.)

I've downloaded version 2.09 and I'm running Finale 2008a on Windows
XP. And any answers in the greatest of expedience would be *very much
appreciated.* Thank you.

... I've also noted this discrepancy in Finale. That's one of the reasons I added "Use Expressions for All Enclosed Numbers". With that option you can set the...

This seems like as good a time as any to renew my long-ago request for the option to have Copyist's Helper *only* create multimeasure rest ranges, ignoring...

Please explain this request further. It seems like a technical solution to a requirement that I don't really understand. What is the complete set of measure...
