I imported a sheet music, but the last part is cut off. What can I do?
I downloaded it from Musescore.
It works fine in Sibelius or Muse Studio,
but in Dorico, the last part is cut off.
Is there a way to view it properly in Dorico?
Welcome.
Presumably, you’ve imported a MusicXML document. Can you upload it here? Or your .dorico file? Or at the very least, a screenshot showing the problem.
It’s probably just something that needs fixing in Layout Options.
Hello and welcome to the forum.
If the .xml file imports well into Sibelius:
do an (music.xml) export from within Sibelius, preferably using the Dolet PlugIn option.
Try to import the resulting file into Dorico.
This procedure can fix irregularities with tuplets, which might be the reason that a part of your import got missing.

Please, teacher.
I’d like to use either of these well in Dorico.
If it is Thalberg piano music, you might be dealing with rather complex tuplets..
I can have a look later (I am writing from my phone at the moment).
This is a classic tuplets problem… I think you’d be better off by deleting (in Musescore studio) the content of bar 282 and export again from Musescore as XML to see if the rest is appearing… rince and repeat until you get most of it and recreate what’s missing in Dorico.

Yes indeed, this looks like a recreating job.
Have a look at that bar 282 in the source by Thalberg. I don’t really understand his notation here, also it is split across two systems by Breitkopf and falsely numbered as 282 and 283:
[edit] this isn’t the Breitkopf edition - they just used its cover…
[2nd edit] here is the Breitkopf version (from around 1875):
[edit 3] this is my try with Dorico.
You will need to create nested tuplets:
And here the same, but resembling the original:
I suspect the nested tuplets to throw the notation off, as described by @NIER
It is possible, that they are not part of musicxml „standard“.
