Thank you Newton.

Indeed, regulation seems to be still possible.
So I will add some shim under the action frame.

| Hi Stéphane,
| 
| I think I would look at why this is happening, what part(s) are warped
| and how the current situation effects the case parts (fallboard and
| keyslip(, the action regulationablity and if all looks like it will work
| then I would cut and glue on a shim under the front rail, then plane
| until it is properly bedded.
| 
| I would check everything out before gluing it on, fall, slip, pinblock
| key blocks, etc.  Don't do anything you cannot undo until you have
| checked everything out.
