Hi folks, I am using sib 7 on a windows PC. When writing a score the page layout is fine, but as soon as I look at individual parts, the first stave is far too low on the page. I can drag it up a little bit, but not enough. Even changing the margins in document setup to very low is not enough. The title, composer and instrument names, however, can be pushed up right to the top of the page. Can anyone help please?
Cheers Sid

In document setup, make sure you are adjusting the STAFF margins rather than the PAGE margins. Does that help?
