Add a page break or some system breaks to force it, or add more measures or increase the staff or Systems distance
Adding stretch doesn't add measures, it just makes them artifically larger than they need to be. To add measures, see the Add menu (commands to insert one or measures at a specific point in the scoire or to qppend them to the end).
If the measures are empty, it probably doesn't need to take more than one page. Everything stretches itself automatically as you add notes; there is normally no reason to interfere with the automatic formatting by adding breaks unless you have very specific requirements. But even if so, it is best to wait unti you are done entering notes to worry about this, as you might find the breaks you add to an empty score tgurn out to be wrong once the automatic formatting kicks in as you add notes.
