Apologies to other listers- this is only way I know to contact David! On 3/8/01 you sent to me, at my request a detailed instruction re page layout- specifically how to 'force' 13 or 14 staves per page. Also 15 measures per staff. By the time I got it I had 'fudged' to the desired situation so didn't use it at the time. Now, I again have the same problem so I dug out the print-out of yours 3/8/01.
You say; Move upper and lower handles (in Page Layout) to minimum required space. Done! Then drag staff up high to where required. Done! Then, under page layout menu, select Systems, then select Staff range, set this 1 to 99. Then click and move one handle on Staff 1, returning to original place- then let go. Done. ALL the systems should now be same size. OOPS! Not so! Top handle seems to have 'worked' but not lower. Tried same thing four times, starting each time from scratch. Same result- or lack of! The instructions which follow seem to work; i.e. reset staff range to 2 -99 and move 2nd staff to position- all staves should now jump into position. Again- I can fudge it- but to be so close and miss out! Any ideas?
