Chapter 33 Working With Notation 801
Scaling Score Sets
You can scale any score set to a desired size between 50 and 200 percent of the
original size.
To scale a score set:
m Select the score set in the Score Set window, then set the Scale parameter to the
desired value.
The Scale parameter affects:
 All staffs
 The distance between the staffs
 All symbols associated with staffs (all notes, rests, and other symbols)
 All local text, including lyrics
 Slur and Tie thickness
The Scale parameter does not affect global text objects (header text, text inserted
outside the margins) and text such as page numbers, and so on.
Scaling doesn’t take place on instrument parts that were created by Option-clicking on
the Score Set menu—and choosing the instrument from the pop-up menu (as
described below, see “Filtering Single Instruments” on page 802). As such, you can use
the same staff styles for full scores and parts: in extracted parts, the staffs will appear
at their original size, in the full score, their size is defined by the Scale parameter.
Note: The All Instruments set can not be edited (and therefore, can not be scaled), so
you’ll need to create a dedicated score set for the full score, in most cases.
