Help with formatting

Hey Everyone,
I can't figure why the lines on page three are so far apart compared to the other two pages. I'm sure I hit a wrong button somewhere. Thanks!

The computer I installed 4.5.1 on died, so I can't see your score. Something to try, however: Select the range of measures that are "so far apart". In fact, select one or two measures before the problem begins and after it ends. Press Ctrl+R to reset them. This resets the formatting of all selected items and MAY fix your problem.

Good luck!!!

I think I have solved the problem by removing the setting of the button "Setting ON the Vertical alignment of the staff ". I was just marking the button " Vertical alignment of staff setting to OFF". I am very sorry, i have a german version of MuseScore and I do not know exactly the expression used to define the 2 buttons. See my screenshot and corrected score.

The default value for Max system distance is "32.0". IOW, it never got changed.

Personally, I wish there were an additional field in that part of the settings: something along the line of "Max system distance on last page". IOW, let the system distance be calculated automagically on pages 1 through [n-1], but on page [n] (the last page), it would never go larger than this value.
