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
