20-8 Staff Spacing (Intermediate)

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS SERIES! MARRY CHRISTMAS!

1) I didn't catch it (I might have missed it) but I see that to respace a staff from start to finish you clicked to the left of the staff and then moved it up and down. If I recall, you can also double click on the staff handle and it will do the same. 2) When composing a string quartet (or similar) I think it is well worth the time to go over every system and move the staves up and down within the confines of the system to adjust the appearance to look the best. And you might have to slightly adjust the systems on the page (presumably you have 3 or 4 systems per page) to give one of the systems a little more space if the string parts are busy. For your final result, it is well worth the time you put in to make the music look perfect.

1) I believe there are more tricks like that covered in one of the videos on the Selection Tool, but it's been a LONG time since I did those videos, so I don't remember if I covered that particular double-clicking of the handle technique. I might have. 2) Indeed!

When I separate the staves, the lower ones don't move to the new page, but dissapear in the bottom, I can't see them. Do you know how to fix that?
