IWBNI it were possible to specify that the function Update Layout should cause the number of measures in each system to fall within a given range. As it is now, measures may be moved manually from one system to the next or previous system by using the mass mover tool.

This could be implemented by adding the following controls to the Update Layout Options dialog box:

--------------------------------------------------------------
Update Layout Options Dialog Box

Number of Measures Per System:
Minimum: _____
Maximum: _____

Move Measures as Needed to: ( ) Previous ( ) Next System --------------------------------------------------------------

For example, with these controls one could specify that there should be 2 to 5 measures in each system. The options for Move Measures as Needed to would be used to specify whether measures should be moved forward or backward when making automatic adjustments to satisfy the range constraint.
