IWBNI it were possible to specify that the amount by which arrow keys nudge special tool handles should be a fixed number of EVPUs and independent of the current size of the view percentage.

As it is now, the amount by which arrow keys nudge special tool handles may be specified using the text box Arrow Keys Nudge Items by on the Movable Items dialog box which may be displayed by selecting the menu item Options>Movable Items. The amount is specified as a number of pixels. The number of EVPUs by which a given handle will be moved depends upon the size of the view percentage.

This could be implemented by replacing the label Pixel(s) on the Movable Items dialog box with a list box that contains the items Pixels and EVPUs. If Pixels is selected, special tool handles would be nudged as in the current version of Finale. If EVPUs is selected, special tool handles would be nudged by the specified number of EVPUs regardless of the current size of the view percentage.
