After beating my head against the walls on this for a few  few days with 
some very helpful suggestion off list from Jeffrey Trevino, thank you 
very much Jeff, I stumbled on a very simple way to do it. While 
searching through the documentation I discovered a link to the version 
2.17.1 docs that Showed the divisio maior to be the half staff mark that 
I prefer. Installed version 2.17.1 and ran a quick test and in works 
like a charm.

Jeff, I believe that your suggestion about changing the font was on the 
mark but haven't dug into the new gregorian.ly to see what may be 
different. Again, thank you very much or pointing the newbie in the 
right directions.

Keith
