Why is there extra space on a hidden clef? 2007-08-08 03:52 pm In this file: http://bellsouthpwp.net/w/b/wbport/mandolin_3.nwc, I have a portable Tempo staff which is layered under whatever part is being printed at the time. I was wondering why is there extra space in front of the hidden treble clef (under the 1st Mandolin part)? Quote Selected
Re: Why is there extra space on a hidden clef? Reply #1 – 2007-08-08 04:11 pm The space you see in the editor is due to the fact that the hidden clef is not vertically aligned with the other visible clefs (in the other staves). This is an over simplification, but since the clef and key signature are hidden, they more or less free fit into the space between the visible time signature and the start of the staff.

If you must keep it visible, layered, just delete the clef - it's redundant. Quote Selected Last Edit: 2007-08-10 01:55 am by David Palmquist

I took out the clef and key signature and the tempo marking backs up a little. It's not a biggie, though. Quote Selected
