Is there any way to increase the space between notes without doing it measure-by-measure?

Thank you. I used the min. note distance and got what I wanted but is there a max. note distance or someway to reduce the distance?

Depends on what you want to do, but the parameter you'd *normally* want to be playing with is neither a min nor max distance, but rather, "spacing". Large values = more space, smaller values = less space. This value controls how much farther apart eighth notes are compared to sixteenths, or quarters compared to eighths, or half notes compared to quarters, etc.

Okay. I did that and restored min back to .60. It's okay except that starting with the 5th line the eighth notes don't seem to be spreading apart.

Posting the score would help.

I'm afraid I can't do that. Any other ideas?

Not sure if there is some sort of legal reason you think you prevent posting the score, but this generally falls under fair use. You could delete all but the relevant passages, too. Anyhow, without seeing the score, it's hard to guess what might be going wrong.

Perfect - then there's no reason you can't post it. I gather you might be concerned about someone "stealing" it, but I assure you, that's not going to happen. People don't go around combing support forums looking for music to steal. And in any case it's already fully protected by copyright law. Unless you never intend for anyone to see it or it hear, there is nothing to be gained by not posting it, and again, seeing the score is really the only way anyone can help/.
