Martin -

Since the movement is already optimized you can do this but only on a system-by-system basis.

In the staff tool, drag enclose the BOTTOM staff handles (drag from bottom of page to top). Then you can use the re-space staves command from the staff tool menu.

I have a multi-movement work that I am editing, with staff distance
set at -320 (evpus). With all of the voices, both instrumental and
vocal, there are 10 staves per system. The 4th movement only has 7
staves per system (I optimized out the other 3 staves that do not
contain any notes in this movement).

With optimizing, I wanted to have two systems per page now for this
movement with only 7 staves per system. However, no matter how I
change the top and bottom margins in page layout, I can't get two
systems to fit on one page.

How can I reduce the distance between staves in this one movement
(maybe -310 or -300 evpus) so I can fit two systems on one page? I
know this used to be possible in a much earlier version of Finale
(although I don't recall how I was able to do it back then).

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
