Multiple Movements
There are some advantages to including multiple movements in the same document. You may, for example, want a new movement to begin in the middle of the page in your liked parts. Or, you may just want to keep your movements consolidated for organization purposes.
Each movement in a multiple-movement score may have its own title/page text, page layout, and instrumentation.
- Use the Staff tool
and Page Layout tool 
to finalize the general page layout, staff spacing, and measure layout of the first movement. Usually, the new movement begins at the top of a page of the full score, so ensure the first measure of the new movement is the first measure on the page. Next, you will lock the first measure to the beginning of the system, then set the system to remain the first on the page. Also, you will likely want to display the full group names at the beginning of every movement. To do this…
- Choose the Measure tool
and double-click the first measure. The Measure Attributes dialog box appears.
- Choose Behavior > Begin a New Staff System and Show Full Staff & Group Names. Click OK.
- Click the Page Layout tool and then select the handle on the upper left corner of the first system of the new movement.
- Choose Page Layout > Insert Page Break.
- Now, with the Page Layout tool, edit the system margins of the first page of the new movement as desired.
- To add title text, choose the Expression tool
. Double-click above the top staff. The Expression Selection dialog box appears. Choose the Tempo Marks category on the left. (In order for the title of this movement to appear in all the parts, you need to create a expression.)
- Click Create Tempo Mark, then enter the title of the movement. Edit the font, size, and style as desired. See Text Expression Designer dialog box for details.
- Click OK and then Assign to add the expression. Click it's handle and drag it into place.
For additional information, see groups, staves, and text.
To adjust the measure numbering, see Measure Numbers.
