No! I have switched it on (automaic update layout). And I found no special settings that might explain the problem. But I know, even with automatic layout on, when I print, the printing dialogue box will only vanish (after hitting ok and printing) when I click once in the window afterwards.

I did some more research. The uneven spacing problem seems to come up most when I start a new piece from scratch. This is what I do mostly, adding bars automatically since I do most work in speedy entry. Using templates, only sometimes the second page will be spaced differently from the

This problem sounds to me as if there is a blank page in your Maestro Default File (or whatever file you use as a starting template.) 1.) When I extract parts, there is always an additional empty page after the last page of the parts. Only if I update I won't print a lot of empty pages.

3.) Since ever. Why won't the spacing between systems change after page 1 even if I did not do anything? Why do I always have to do one of my dozen workarounds to get systems evenly spaced not on one page, but throughout the piece, normally so I won't need more pages than necessary? Why will

Dear Kurt, On the imploding issue. Whenever I do this operation, I always clear note expressions, articulations, and smart shapes (using mass edit) from the lower parts and implode them into the highest selected part. This avoids the problem of having duplicates in the imploded result.
