Coda indent

Sorry I wasn’t clear. What I mean is how can I make the staff with the “repeat section” coda attached flush left? I tried alt-left arrow but it won’t take the staff all the way to the left. I did put the Coda above the staff so everything will be inside the margin.

Rob is giving you the right answer: you need to set the indent to 0 in Engraving Options. This affects the gap whether it comes in the middle of the system or at the start of the system, since it’s conventional to always use a gap. The gap allows the player to quickly find the coda when they are jumping to it from a place far away.

Ah, I see it now. Great, thanks Rob and Daniel. I totally agree that the indent makes for easy sighting, something I prefer actually :slight_smile: It’s just that a lot of my bandmates use ipads and I try to fit as much as possible on each staff.
