Changing the margins above/below tacets

You can change the margins both above/below tacets in each layout independently; for example, if you want smaller gaps between flow headings and tacets in some layouts to facilitate page turns better.

Procedure

  1. Press Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-L to open Layout Options.
  2. In the Layouts list, select the layouts in which you want to change the margins above/below tacets.

    By default, the layout currently open in the music area is selected when you open the dialog. You can select other layouts by using the selection options in the action bar, clicking and dragging across multiple layouts, Shift-clicking adjacent layouts, and Ctrl/Cmd-clicking individual layouts.

  3. In the category list, click Players.
  4. In the Tacets section, change the values for the following options, individually or together:

    • Margin above tacet

    • Margin below tacet

  5. Click Apply, then Close.

Result
