Select Page from the Display menu. Click on the Set button for Staff
Spacing to bring up the Staff Spacing dialog.
You can move the staves that appear on the window on the left side of
the Staff Spacing dialog by dragging them up or down. You can move the
staves three different ways, depending on the moving mode you select.
If you choose Independent, moving a staff up or down does not affect any
of the other staves. If you choose Accordion, the top staff and the bottom
staff are anchored and the staff you move pulls the staves above and below
it in an accordion effect. Choosing Push Up/Down moves the staves below
the one being moved, along with the one being moved, as you move it up
or down. If you click on the Default Spacing button the staff spacing
will revert to the default. Of course, if you have only one track in your
piece, you won't be able to affect the spacing between staves.
You can affect the spacing between systems by setting a new value in
the System Spacing list box. By default, the spacing between systems is
set at 4, which is about equivalent to the space between three ledger
lines. This means that systems are spaced apart by this amount in addition
to the default spacing between staves in the same system.
