increasing space between lines moves notes?

• Aug 14, 2014 - 14:14

This is the latest nightly: 2.0.0 Revision 6d46589 on macosx Mountain Lion 10.8.5

See the attached screenshot1 and note the notes in the B Trumpet staff.

Now I select that staff go into staff properties, and up the Line distance from 1.0sp to 1.5sp

the result is the second screenshot. Note how the G note has become a Bb?

How did that happen? All I wanted is to make the staff look bigger..

Nice try :-), but it doesn't work that way. It isn't clear what that setting is actually for, but it doesn't work for this purpose - you'd need a setting that scales everything in the staff, not just line distance.

Coincidentally (? or not), it looks like such a feature was *just* added by Werner a few minutes ago :-). It will appear on Staff Properties.

Assuming your goal really is to increase the size of just that one staff. If you wanted all staves bigger, that's always been possible - Page Layout / Space.
