Use Scale Staff to scale staff dimensions and font size.
Usually when designing a staff you will determine limb
row heights, column widths and staff
font size by using the appropriate commands from the Format menu.
However when editing your draft score, Scale Staff may be very convenient for making your staff fit better onto the page or making symbols fit better into cells.
Steps
In the Staff Properties dialog, choose the Size and Borders
tab, then choose Scale Staff.
Type a scaling percentage.
Choose which staff elements to include in the scaling:
Staff Height. The scaling factor will be applied to each limb row. Note: Staffs may move to previous or following pages if you did
not apply manual breaks to the page.
Symbol Font Size. Affects all EW Symbols within the staff.
Text Font Size. Affects limb names and written text within the staff.
Column Widths. Changes staff column widths. Note: Staff columns may move to previous or following staffs if
you did not apply manual breaks to the
staff.
Cell Margins. Scales top and bottom margins of limb rows and left and right margins
of staff columns.
Choose the area of the document to which the settings are to be applied.
Current Staff. Only the current staff line will be scaled.
Current Staff and Forward. Changes will be applied from the current staff line to the end of
the document.
Selected Staffs. This option is only available if staffs were selected.
