Balancing system amounts between pages
I've just written some backing horn lines for Alto Sax and Trumpet and everything looks good. But, when I separate the parts and they get split into multiple pages, the systems are uneven. I have 1 page of 10 systems and 1 page of 5. Is there a way to select a measure and make that the start of a new page?
This would also make page-turns (on ipad) easier as I could toggle it to have some bars of rest at the end of the page so I wasn't changing pages in the middle of playing.
I've tried the stretch function and this gets me close to the result I wanted, but it seems to move things in chunks rather than a bar at a time (IE: not very precise)
FYI: My first post here so I hope I'm in the correct section. Cheers

Use a page break.
Select the measure before the one you wish to have on a new page and apply the page break.
In other words, the page break is applied to the last measure you want on the page. Measures following get moved to a new page.
