LH guitar fingerings MS latest version 3.6.2.x
LH Fingerings of notes above and below the staff are too close to ledger lines and thus impede reading.

I don't think there have been any changes recently to position, but there was a slight change to scaling if the staff is a non-standard size. Can you attach the specific score you are having trouble with and describe the issue in more detail?

Attached is a screenshot of the issue. Please see the LH fingerings for the 4 bass notes that are below the staff. They are almost against the ledger lines in the noteheads.

I had to recreate the first 24 measures for you as I had already moved the fingerings in my completed score. I use the same style file for all of my scores but it only formats headers and footers as you see in this attached score. I have not altered the default ledger lines or stems, note heads etc.. At least not knowingly. Notice how close the LH fingerings are to the notes above and below the staff. This issue began after I installed the latest version of 3.6.2.548021803 revision 3224f34.
Thank you

Indeed, your ledger lines are unusually long, the default fingering position is designed to work with the default ledger line line only. So either reset your ledger lines to the default (or something smaller, anyhow - the default is 0.35 sp and yours are 0.60 sp). or else increase the X offset for LH guitar finger. The former setting is in Format / Style / Notes, the latter in Format / Style / Text Styles / LH Guitar Fingering.
My guess is you had customized this at a time when there was a bug causing custom ledger line lengths to be misinterpreted, and this resulted in you entering a value far larger than you actually should have to get the result you wanted. That bug has been fixed, but it does mean the bad value you entered previously now actually looks bad, as it should have all along. There is a blurb about this in the release note I believe. Anyhow, just reset the ledger line length and all should be well.

Thank you very much. I sure don't remember changing it but I'll change it back to the default.

Those ledger lines look pretty long. Please share the score
