Normally, Mup determines how many measures to put on each score and how many
scores to put on each page. You can force Mup to move to the next score with
the "newscore" statement, or to the next page with a "newpage" statement.
Here is an example:
1: c;d;e;f; bar 1: e;f;g;; bar newscore // go to next score 1: 2c;; bar 1: e;f;g;; bar newpage // go to next page 1: e;g;2c; bar
You can temporarily change the indent for the new score by specifying "leftmarginnum," where num is a floating point number of inches or centimeters (depending on the current setting of the units parameter.) The new score will then be indented by that much, overriding the value of the leftmargin parameter.
In a similar way, you can specify "rightmargin=num," which
will affect
the right margin
on the previous score. This might
be used, for example, if you want a piece to end with a
shorter than normal score.
newscore leftmargin=1.2 rightmargin=2.7
