Mark, Jaap,
I agree, the bugs need to be fixed, but the ones that did crop up didn't really give me serious problems. By the way I should have mentioned that I am running XP OS. I just thought that to have a common music vocabulary in composer is needed and actually would save time in rehearsals at any level of proficiency. Well this doesn't always happen as musical directors sometimes like to change so many things in order to get a new interpretation or for whatever reason, you wonder why were there expressives written in the first place. One more thing; on my screen I find that the pallet column is too close to the edge of the screen and too narrow. Yes it can be shifted but can its width be increased? Anyway I love the software and it’s given me a new lease of life.

Viv.
