Peter -- Thank you for your helpful reply. That appears to work. The other thing I played with is the "trial-and-error" approach to positioning: Move it over some, Zoom out and in to see where it...

Basic smart shapes (crescendo, decrescendo, simple lines, etc.) cannot be placed precisely after using the Peterson Beam-Over-Barline plugin. In this simplified example, I place a crescendo betwee...
