Can't see the full orchestral score from an imported .xml file
Hi,
I’m just learning Musescore and have a question regarding formatting the page display so that the full orchestral score is visible. I’ve received a “.xml” file and upon opening it in MS4 I can't see all of the instruments in the full score…many of the bottom staves are cut off. (All instruments are playing back fine).
So, perhaps I need to go to ‘Format’ -> ‘Page Settings’ and adjust some parameters (?), but I’m not sure what the most expedient settings would be.
Any assistance would be much appreciated!

See:
https://musescore.org/en/handbook/4/score-size-and-spacing#page-settings
to find out how to increase the height of the paper to accomodate the truncated instruments at the bottom of the page.
and/or:
https://musescore.org/en/handbook/4/score-size-and-spacing#staff-size
which mentions: "Large ensemble scores may often require a smaller staff size in order to fit all instruments on the page."

Thx Jm6stringer, for pointing out the correct parameter to adjust. Setting staff spacing (sp) to 1.4 mm worked perfectly.
