Sib. 7.5: Staves go off the page!
Posted by engraver - 14 Dec 09:52PM
On one song for some reason Sibelius started justifying the staves as if there were an extra two inches of page at the bottom, making the music hang in midair.
I have tried so many times to reposition/reformat to fix this weird glitch but nothing is working. No one on the internet seems to have had this problem before me. Please help!

This is quite possible, depending on the settings for page margin, staff margin, staff spacing, etc.

See http://sibelius.ideascale.com/a/dtd/Bottom-staff-margin-formula-madness/123263-22221
for details, and then tell us this score's values for all the relevant settings

Attach the sib file rather than just a screenshot and we can quickly tell you what to do.

I actually just copied and posted the entire score into a blank document and the problem went away. Thanks anyway!
