How do I get Page Layout changes to show in score or part?

Hi everybody,

I’m four days into Dorico. This is going to be a super noob question, but I’ve worked on this for a few hours and searched and can’t find the answer.

I’ve made alterations to the First Page Layout in the default score, and when I Apply/Close, the frames I’ve moved and/or resized in the score are in their original position/size.

UPDATE: PROBLEM SOLVED thanks everyone!


Just a guess. Do your pages have overrides (red triangles showing in the pages panel)? If so, they prevent subsequent template changes from taking affect.

Thank you for the response! Yes I read that that’s usually why a page template won’t ovverride the page. It does not.

Have you ported the changes from the (say) left page to the right page? Often we forget that most music starts on the right page. One needs to change the layout of both pages of a Page Template to be sure the file reflects that in Write and Engrave mode (etc.)
