The Staff Spacing... menu item brings up a panel which allows
the spacing between staves in orchestral or large chamber scores to be set more efficiently.
The user can type in the distance (in ledgers) between each staff or use the Load Spacing
button to load the current spacing values for the system. The new values are set
(either only to the current system or to all subsequent systems) by clicking on
the Set Spacing button.
- In order to properly align images to the grid, only integer and
half values are permitted in the staff spacing text fields. Values such as 7.5 and 8 are acceptable,
7.75 and 8.2 are not.
- Remember that the spacing values are the distances between
staves, so if you have ten staves, you will only have 9 spacing values to set.
