Hi,
I have some old projects from Sibelius and imported them via XML. So I’m a complete beginner concerning Engrave mode.
Page 2 looks fine, page one not. Can I make page 1 look like page 2?
Warmly
Peter

You will likely see a lot of (purple) System breaks and/or Frame breaks. Delete them all. Dorico should then layout both pages better.
(In your Preferences>MusicXML Import options… Uncheck everything. That lets Dorico use its own settings and generally gives better results)
THANKS, Janus:-)
Hi @Piano_Vink, adding to the useful suggestion by @Janus, a fast way to “delete all breaks” is to go in Engrave mode > Graphic editing, and press the button Reset Layout (on the lower part of the left panel ):
@Piano_Vink - @Christian_R is quite right. That is the quickest way.
But, personally, I like to understand what/why I am deleting things. Manually deleting system breaks you will quickly learn how they affect layout.
Good morning and thanks again!!!

@Piano_Vink If you’re going to mark an answer as the solution, it should be one of the helpful replies you received, not your own post.
(I’ve done so.)
