Adding Blank Page to End of Score Not working for me
I'm trying to add a blank page to the end of my score, but I can't seem to do it.
I've been instructed to: select the last measure of the scored and add a vertical frame to it (so far so good). Then add a page break to the last measure.
Unfortunately for me, when I add the page break, nothing happens.
I'll post of pic of what it looks like after I've add the page break.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Append a frame
In reply to Append a frame by Jojo-Schmitz
Thanks for the superfast response! I just discovered that difference.
Ok, after trying "append vertical frame" instead of "insert vertical frame", Musescore does insert a blank page at the end.
But this is not solving my main problem which is this: You'll see in the image below that on my page 3, the bottom of the score is cutoff. I'm not sure how to fix that. I thought adding a blank page would.
Page 1 and 2 are not cutoff and fit on the view perfectly.
My ultimate goal with this is to produce a YouTube video that follow the music as it plays. I've learned how to make the video file, but, like the in the image, the page 3 (the last page) has it's bottom cut off.
Again, thanks for any help in finding out what I'm doing wrong.

Your page is not high enough for all the staves
Use bigger paper (format settings) or lower the space scaling setting

Thank you so much. Using 13 x 19 (which is larger than the Tabloid 11 x 17) has solved it.
I'll keep that in mind for future scores. Also, I'll read the manual and understand how to reduce the space scaling.

And/or reduce staff space in "Page Settings". That results in smaller staff and smaller notes. But keep in mind that someone hast to read your score.

That looks like landscape orientation. Portrait orientation would allow more staves (but fewer measures) to fit on the same size paper.
Another tweak to allow more to fit on the page would be to reduce the size of the top and bottom margins.

Thanks Steve. I use portrait when I print out for myself on paper.
I'm using landscape here because I'm recording this for youtube and even though the notes are going to be minuscule to see, the overall goal is just to show that the notation is there.
