I noticed that you did not mention testing the file's integrity, &
removing deleted items.
I would certainly give these routines a try...maybe you'll get lucky.
If anyone has any other suggestions, please jump in.
Waiting for you guys to answer (for which many thanks), I tried
several things, with no luck:
- I imported the music spacing options from another document; no change
- I tried to respace preceding movements, and they get messed up also
- I tried adding measures at the end; no luck
- I cleared all the entries from the document and copied the 5th
movement as the first; no luck either
- I pasted this movement in another document with the same options,
and the spacing is correct
- I tried a much larger reference width (going from 84 to 300); the
spacing is wider, but sill completely crazy, with unexpected
collisions.
So, I'm afraid you're right, the file is corrupted. I send it to
technical support, and I'll let you know what they have to say...
I also noticed a few other strange things (before this problem even came up).
- in a couple of places, I had two grace notes at the end of a
couple of bars; at some time, against my will, these grace notes all
jumped after the barline to the beginning of the next bar. So I
deleted them and rentered them. But I couldn't respace the music
correctly after that.
Thanks again for the suggestions.
Dennis
