Verticle Staff Size
In my choral score, some pages have decided to give me extra verticle space that is causing there to be only 1 composite staff per page. Most of my score has 2 composite staffs per page. I don't know how MuseScore decided I wanted this, nor can I figure out how to compress the composite staffs so that I can get 2 per page like I have in most of my score.
I actually read the manual and got this:
"Distance between staves within systems
If you select DIsable vertical justification of staves, then there are two settings that control spacing within systems:
Staff distance: set the distance between the staves of adjacent instruments
Grand staff distance: set the distance between the staves of a grand staff (e.g., for piano, actually for all staves connected by a curly brace)."
I cannot figure out how to get to this setting. I literally clicked on every menu item that seemed a remote possibility.
Does anyone have a suggestion? Thank you in advance and best wishes for a wonderful day.

If you want a quick, if not immediate, response, please attach your score. Especially on a question of page layout, it's hard to predict what might have happened without seeing it (maybe there's something out of position that screws up the layout).
Here's the score in MXL format (seemed to be the only choice.
Thanks!

You can attach Musescore .mscz files. Then we can immediately rule out problems arising from mis-converting to/from .mxl.

Awesome! Perfect! Thank you. Any idea why my score got 'enhanced'? Just so I can avoid this in the future...
And if there's ever anything I can do for you, please let me know. I have a pretty fully tricked out home project studio.
Best Regards again!

Each score is particular. I have done 2 things and only 2 in yours.
1. Enable vertical justification of staves
2. Scaling to 1.500mm (it was more touchy around here) :)

I couldn't find where to Enable/Disable Vertical Justification of Staves. What property was it under?
Thanks! And I'll leave you alone after this, I'd just like to know how to get to that function.
