Kevin,
I'll give it a try. You bring up an interesting question. What are the
keystrokes for moving a selected item a small amount vs. a large amount?

Dave,
Like I said, with a little visual assistance, you can usually highlight the
copyright text, then unfreeze it and move it down with two CTRL down arrows.

Sorry for the unintentional use of "crash". No it's just as you suspect, the
copyright is overwriting the verse 2 lyrics.
So if the score looks well-balanced with 8 staves, but overwrites the
copyright, then you suggest I put in a page break at the end of system 7?
That seems simple enough, but wouldn't Sibelius then try to spread out the 7
systems down the page to the bottom margin and again overwrite?
Seems like I need a "buffer" space above the copyright (or below the verse 2
lyrics to ensure there's enough space. Any ideas as to what I could insert?

Dave,
When you say "it crashes", do you mean that the plug-in editor opens with
some plug-in code, or that a message box opens with a warning message of
some kind.
As for the copyright text. It's aligned to the bottom margin of the page, so
there might not be much room for it to be moved downwards. Better to try and
stop the lyrics going down that far. How about a page break to stop too many
staves appearing on the first page? Of course, you'll need sighted
assistance to tell you what works.

Hope someone has guidance.
I have a score with single staves, and two lines of lyrics, both below the
staff.
Also a copyright system item attached to the first bar.
Problem is that the copyright is always overlapping the lyrics on the
bottom-most staff.
I use the plug-in "make layout uniform" to balance the staves on the first
page, and it doesn't matter whether I choose 7 or 8 staves on the first
page; it still crashes.
I've tried all the layout menu adjustments and they don't help.
I notice in the text styles dialog that the copyright is place at the bottom
edge, 0 mm away. Is this a place where I can force the copyright to print
lower, by changing the value from 0 to either a positive or negative number?
Or is there something else I should be adjusting to move that copyright down
a bit?
Dave
