Hi,
Once again apolgies for bumping this thread…
I’ve been playing with this some more. I have a template for a printed output to go along with my ‘handwritten’ one.
The work around I’m using in the handwritten font template in order to aleviate the % not hiding in D 4.3 is to set the background colour switch in the paragraph styles dialogue and drag the Play x text over the % in the staff. This works great as I’m using BopMusic enclosure which allows for the brackets and overline as above.
However, in my printed template, there is no enclosure with the font I’m using (minion pro).
If I set the background switch in paragraph styles, with just text, this works.
However the issue I’m currently having is a weird one. I’d like the Play n text in a box.
When I set the border property in the paragraph styles dialogue, I get this (using the instant print preview )
When I turn the border on using the properties panel, I get this (which is what I want)
You can also see that there’s a disparity with the size and width of the border, and my understanding of the properties panel is that it is used to uniquely override the default settings, this time, I’m assuming in the paragraph styles dialogue?
Anyhow, this feels odd to me and I’m not sure is if has anything to do with the issue I’m having with the % not hiding in D4 like it did in D3.5 but it may be related.
I’d really like in both templates to put the Play n text above the staff if possible.
Again, sorry to bother again with this @dspreadbury but maybe you can shed some light?
Thanks as always,
P
