Respace Staves dialog box

How to get there

  1. Click the Staff tool . The Staff tool appears.
  2. Choose Staff > Respace Staves.

What it does

The options in this dialog box adjust the vertical staff spacing for all selected systems. (Any portion of the system can be selected). It can either space staves evenly, or—if your staves aren’t evenly spaced to begin with—it can preserve the gaps between staves, but make all gaps proportionally larger or smaller. It can also reset to the current Scroll View spacing.

Tip: If your score has different distances between groups (such as between woodwinds and brass), use Scale to a percentage to maintain those unique distances.
