This score has no parts to apply the style to. I think you are misunderstanding what MuseScore is doing in general.

To have parts, you must have a score with more than one instrument and then generate parts (see https://musescore.org/en/handbook/parts).

When you change the Max. system distance, you are telling MuseScore it has permission to place this much space between system not that it must. If your score already has the most space needed to fit all of your systems on a page, it won't change anything. This is the case with the score you attached.

If you explain what you are trying to do, then I or someone can give you idea(s) about how to accomplish that.

Thanks! I understand now. I,m trying to have more distance between all systems even I have only one part (instrument) in my lead sheet. I want more space to do a harmonic analysis below each system. I know how to do this individualy, but I want to do it for all score at once. Thanks!

I think in your score if you want to keep a single page you should make everything smaller. I wouldn't mess with max system distance though. To make everything smaller lower the scaling in Format->Page settings... Keep in mind, the spacing between staves will likely increase as you make the scale smaller. As you enter you analysis, you may find that you need to decrease the scale a bit more, but you'll find in this short score that's not a terrible thing to need to do.

Put in your analysis and MuseScore will move systems to a new page as needed, you can then decide if you want to set the page break in a different spot.
