Number of staves

Hi

Im using a Piano and vocal template and why can I only get 1 group of 3 staves? Why can't it carry on DOWN the page?

It will carry on, on one line and it all won't print!!?

Any help?
Thanks
James

Your question is unclear. Have you looked at the samples to see how a 3 part score is notated in NWC?

I believe I know what you're talking about. In the editing window (the main NWC program where you add notes), a single stave continues forever and does not look how it appears on the printed page.

Enter your music on the 3-stave template, then go to File -> Print Preview. This will show you how your music actually appears on the page.

Hope I haven't misunderstood! These forums are an excellent place for feedback/help so reply if you still have trouble.

The problem of being all on one line my also happen if bar lines are no used. If you do not wish to use bar lines, make them where they should go and then make them invisable.
