The Copy Staff Spacing dialog allows you to choose pages whose individual staff spacing changes you want to copy and the pages to which you want to copy them.

  • You can open the Copy Staff Spacing dialog in Engrave mode by choosing Engrave > Staff Spacing > Copy Staff Spacing.

    Tip

    You can assign a key command for opening the Copy Staff Spacing dialog on the Key Commands page in Preferences.

The Copy Staff Spacing dialog contains the following options:

From page

Allows you to change the page whose staff spacing you want to copy by specifying the page number. If you have an item selected when you open the dialog, that page is set in the value field automatically.

To page start

Allows you to set the first page in the layout to which staff spacing changes are copied.

To page end

Allows you to set the last page in the layout to which staff spacing changes are copied.

For example, if you wanted to copy staff spacing changes you made on the first page to the next three pages, meaning pages two, three, and four, but not to page five and onwards, you would set From page to 1, To page start to 2, and To page end to 4.

Previews show the displayed page number beside each value field, so that if you have changed the displayed page number of pages within the layout you can still identify the page to which you are copying staff spacing changes.
