Increasing

Hi,
I've got problem with style editing. I started choir score and I needed to increase staff distance (vertically) in order to avoid lyrics/dynamics collisions. I added new measures (Ctrl+Shift+B), but now the old systems have different staff distance than a newly created. When I try to fix it, the extra space is applied both to old and the new systems, so a height of them is not equal. I think that the style editing settings should be automatically applied to all newly created items. What should I do?

Maybe you already solved / fixed it. Anyway:

1) Newly added systems have no lyrics yet; old systems probably have. This accounts for some difference in height, as vertical room for lyrics is created when lines are added. Once all staves have lyrics they should all have the same height.

2) Maybe style is not consistently applied immediately (this happens for instance for page number positions), but usually everything goes into place by saving, closing and re-loading the score. Have you tried this?
