Increasing space between the TAB & the notation
I've tried to increase the space between TAB & notation in a ukulele duet arrangement. I looked first on the forum and understood the following:
FORMAT - STYLE - PAGE
Grand stave distance = distance between staves of the same instrument
Staff distance = distance between the staves of different instruments
I selected the first one and increased the values. The TAB and the notation did not change.
Any help gratefully appreciated, thank you..

You attached a backup score
These are 4 indepentant instruments , so staff distance is having an effect here
If it were 2 instruments with a normal and a tab staff each, the distance between normal and tab would be affected by grand staff distance
See also #315052: Vertical justification of staves: "Min. staff distance" also affects grand staves and staff/tab

There are two ukuleles but both have TAB and notation, giving four staves. Is the system reading it as four instruments? Is there no way of altering the distance between TAB and notation for the two instruments?

No, it is 4 instruments, 2 with a normal staff and 2 with a tab staff

"The system" is doing what you told it when you created the score - indeed, it is set up for four instruments. if you wanted it to be two instruments, the way to do that is only add two instruments, and then to each of those two instruments, add a staff. Perhaps a linked staff if you want standard & tab to be lined together so changes to one automatically reflect on the other.
So, to fix it, add staves to the third and third instrument (in Edit / Instruments), either as linked staves, or not and then copying over the content over from the second and fourth instruments. Then remove the latter.
