I use Dorico Pro 5.1.81 on a MacBook Pro. How do I decrease spaces between systems on the last page of the tenor recorder part of this piece? Five staves spread throughout an entire page is too difficult to read. I want them bunched closer together at the top of the page. The file is attached. Thanks

Hi @frank.fitzpatrick , beside the useful suggestions by @DanielMuzMurray, here an alternative workflow to optimise your layout (to see also a usage case for the second threshold of Vertical Justification):
- set the Rastral Size to 6mm
- set in Note pacing the Default space for crotchet/quarter note to 3 7/8 spaces (one click on the down arrow icon)
- since now the biggest percentage of frame fullness is 90,6%, set the second threshold in Vertical Justification (Justify distance only between systems when frame is at least: X% full) to a bigger value than that: 95% for example, so the staves and system will be justified.
Here a short video showing this workflow:
