Take a look at Options | Page Format | Score and make sure all
settings are the way you want them. Then choose the Page Layout tool
and do Page Layout | Redefine Page | All Pages. This will force all
pages to have the margins and sizing and so forth as given in Page
Format. Note that Page Format lets you specify different margins for
the first staff system of the piece, and also different margins for
left/right pages, if you choose.

No. I believe the only way to slash beamed grace notes is to create a
slash as a graphic expression and then apply that expression to the
various instances of beamed grace notes. Of course, you can assign
that expression to a metatool, which makes assignment easier. (But be
aware that assigning a shape expression with a metatool creates a new
copy of the shape, not just a pointer to your original shape, so that
you could theoretically have some file bloat if you add hundreds of
these slashes.)
