Ledger lines

Ledger lines appear automatically in Finale whenever you enter a note that requires them. In addition, any tool that performs a staff- or measure-related function automatically draws ledger lines as you move the cursor, letting you know which staff you’re attached to. See also Ledger Lines (Hide) Plug-in, Ledger Lines (Show) Plug-in.

To change the thickness or length of ledger lines

1. Choose Document > Document Options > Lines and Curves. The Lines and Curves options appear.
2. Enter a new thickness value in the Ledger Lines text box. The units are whatever you’ve selected using Edit > Measurement Units. Or, to change the ledger line length, enter new values in the Left Half and Right Half text boxes. For extra flexibility, you can control the length of each side of the ledger line independently.
3. Click OK (or press ENTER).
