I guess you are aware of
- page breaks
- system breaks
Background first: remember how I whenever I unlocked my systems; the
measures seem to collapse onto themselves, where the notes are all
running into each other? I am still not sure why that happens. But I
noticed when I went back to reset the measure width, at a certain point,
no matter what number I plugged in, the measures wouldn't do anything. I
was pulling my hair out after 90 mins.
I found out the reason. The last measure had a system break. It seems
like a road block for the measures to be changed until you remove that.
I turned that break off, reset my measures just the precise width; and
everything worked fine.
I am unsure about how to set a page break? Where is that option? Would I
use this for a movement break as well as a system break?
I do all this layout stuff after I've entered all the music (notes,
expressions, lyrics, articulations, smart-shapes, etc.).
You can define page breaks when in the Page Layout tool -- right-click
the handle for the system you want to appear on the next page.
You would do this for movement breaks if you want the next movement to
begin at the top of the next page, certainly.
System breaks are defined using the Measure tool -- double click the
handle at the end of the measure you want to begin the new system, and
in the next dialog, check the box Begin a New Staff System. You may
need to update the layout after doing this (ctrl-u) to ensure that the
system breaks appear in page view as they're supposed to.
