It would be cool if this pane would be able to show at least more than one pages since it has pages and it can be resized accordingly, so that when the user modifies the scaling, he is able to see the immediate result in the preview pane, and not have to hit apply and close the pane in order to judge whether what he did does or does not add an other page to the score.

Thanks!

Are you sure? I am also referring to Layout>Page Settings.

A different problem to the original, I now realise. Page Settings Preview is currently a problem if you are:

1) Checking if another page (perhaps if there's little on it and you wish to avoid using another page).
2) Checking if notes go off the page (i.e. a bar completely filled with hemi-demi-semi quavers).

The "corruption" can be fixed by downscaling the size, but you may have to go back to it a few times to see the final page (where it happens), as only the first page is available in the preview.

Is it corruption? I'm not sure if there's a natural workaround in keeping a desired size?

That's great.

However, I prefer to see multiple pages at once with a scroll bar - could that be implemented instead?
