Staves snapping too far to the bottom of the page

Hello. I have a section in a large score where I have the staves reduced to three instruments. When I auto format the staff spacing, it squishes all the systems to the top half of the page. And when I try to bring it down, it snaps it down to where the bottom stave is way too far at the bottom, and is cutting off the dynamics and overlapping with the page number. I can't move the system slightly up, because it just snaps back to halfway up the page again. Is there any way to toggle that?

Ok I fixed it. For anyone that runs into this issue I just Selected the same staff on the next page, selected align staves, and checked align staves at last passage
Be awarecthat, if you do this, then later use reset space above/below, or some other function that changes page justification settings, you'll have to do it all again.
Better to change the Justify staves when x% full setting. Sib automatically sets it to 60% which is way too small. Change it to 80 or 85. That will ket you drag the lower staff about much more. Also, if it's bumping into page numbers, you might want to consider increasing the staff margins to avoid this.
