Note stems from Treble and Bass touching?

• Feb 20, 2017 - 16:27

How to prevent stems from Treble and Bass from touching each other? I need to open the space between the Treble and Bass clef. How to do I do that? I need space to put the lyrics too. The space between the two clefs is too small.

Thanks.

In order to understand the specific situation you are dealing with and give better help, we'd need you to attach the score you are having trouble with. Depending on what is actually going on, the answer could be to add more space between staves globally, or just for those staves, or just for certain systems, or it could be to shorten stems, etc.

In general, spaces is automatically allowed for lyrics as you add them, so you shouldn't need to worry about that. Although if you have stems extending outside the staff into the lyric area, you might need to change the lyric margin settings or making other adjustments. Again, we'd need to see the score to advise further.

First off... welcome aboard!

As you can see, we are eager to help, but more information is needed on our part to prevent guesswork. Are you creating a score for multiple instruments (several staves per system); or just, for example, a piano (treble + bass clef) sheet with lyrics. As Marc recommends, you can attach the MuseScore file to your forum post - so we can have a better understanding of the details.

Regards.
