Hi Gary,

If you want to scroll the screen, make sure you are in Window View (the View menu). In the lower right of the screen, you will see a page of page box. Immediately to the left is a box with an arrow at each end and a kind of vertical rectangle somewhere between them. This vertical rectangle can be used with the mouse pointer to scroll forward or back. The arrows will move a page at a time. So if you want to move measure by measure, use the vertical rectangle. It is very sensitive, so it is difficult to drag the mouse (probably should work to click on it and then have the arrow keys work--a feature I've been intending to request). But if you will click immediately to one side or the other, movement will be by a measure, and should be useful in the situation you describe above.

You can also use View Measures on the Measure menu, to select a range of measures to display.

Your crash sounds familiar, but not connected with Composer. It was a former computer and I never did find out what caused it. Mark may be able to help more on this issue.

all best,
