[JW Lua] Applying MENUCMD_NOTESPACING to non-selected measures

[Jan Angermüller]

Jari,

thanks for your response and thanks for being back on the list !

SetInDocument() was one of the missing links.
But unfortunately, it still doesn't work in all cases.
It only works if a tool was selected before running the plug-in that 
supports a region
(as the documentation for SetInDocument says: "The region will only be 
visually present if the currently selected tool in Finale supports 
regions.")

So it would be great if you could*add a MenuCommand for the selection tool*.
Then it would be:

     finenv.UI():MenuCommand(finale.MENUCMD_SELECTIONTOOL)
     finenv.Region():SetFullDocument()
     finenv.Region():SetInDocument()
     finenv.UI():MenuCommand(finale.MENUCMD_NOTESPACING )

Best regards,
Jan
