Indeed, this was one of the first things I tried, with no effect.
No, the problem was really with the "page break" command. As soon as
I went to page layout, selected all the systems and chose "delete
page breaks" from the menu, the problem went away. How this came to
be in the first place I will probably never know.
Thanks for your input.

Ah, but did you Update Layout while you were on the FIRST page?
Finale only updates layout from the page you are on until the end.
In some cases if the scroll bar is only nudged a bit right, then
update is only from page 2, so hit Home.

Subject: [Finale] Layout misbehavior
To: finale@shsu.edu
Ok, I haven't run across this one before:
I have a long piece with 8 staves per system and, until today,
two
systems fit well on one page. Now, suddenly, the systems are
arranged
in Page View as follows:
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | etc.
2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
that is, each system appears _twice, once at the bottom, once at
the
top of the next page. In "Scroll View" everything is fine, by
the
way, with no duplications of any kind.
"Update Layout" does nothing (my first thought) and neither
does
"Data Check". In my desperation I finally exported the file via
Music
XML and imported it again. The result was a document with a
_single_
system per page
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
and a strange symbol in the upper left corner which looks like
the
old carriage return sign: |_> In the new file I can't get
two
systems onto one page, although there's enough room. It would
seem
that this is being prevented by the "carriage return" symbol.
Can anybody help me with this?
