Appending a frame in the middle of a score?
I'm writing a collection of Hebrew songs. Some of them only take up half a page and I'd like to put the translation at the bottom of the page. (The English words don't always fit the melody). It seems the only two options are to insert a frame, which goes above the last line of music or append a frame which will put it at the very end of the score on the last page.
Is there any way to write text in an empty space in the bottom half of a page in the middle of the score?

Insert a vertical frame into the last system of a page, click on the inserted vertical frame to select it, then click on the 'Page break' in the Layout palette.
This will make the frame the last element on the page - so it shows at the bottom. Add your translation into the frame.

I find vertical frames (even when inserting text into them) more versatile. Especially when positioned at the bottom of the page, they can also serve as an ersatz "spacer" -- while simultaneously holding the text.

Also, not knowing the OP's situation, there's this possibility:
Just to clarify the terminology, you can only "append" something at the end of the score. If you want it in the middle of the score you need to insert it.
Thank you for your replies! Worked perfectly!
