Maintain equal spacing between the notes and the margins


I want to know how can I set it up to automatically create a score with equal spacing between the notes and on both sides.

I very much want this too, and I lobbied for it long ago, to no avail. Dorico does not have a way to do this automatically. We have to use manual beat spacing.

Fortunately most music is not so stretched out, and the issue of the downbeat being “stuck” to the left side is not usually so pronounced. The idea of centering in the bar has been much discussed on the forum. I wrote a little essay last month here.
