I have been loyal to MM for over 15 years, The problem is that the people working now at MM didn't work there 15 y.a.

I have been urging for this since several years back. I am not sure what is their priority....

I use Boot Camp to boot into Windows 7. You can use one USB flash druve formatted as FAT for your all files, so every time you boot in OS X or Win you will have them. Or a cloud service.

When I use staff style, every time I make a selection and hit delete, the staff style is deleted. How to prefent doing that, except going to the menu "Clear selected items"?

WELL stated!...
