Each staff breaks at the end of a line, starting a new line below the remaining staffs. In continuous page layout, View → Continuous Page Layout → Linear Layout the music is arranged in one infinitely-tall page of the same width as the window. However, you can also display staffs in two different page-based layouts: continuous page and multiple page layouts. Some of the functions of the editor (such as the Rulers) are only available in linear layout View → Layout Mode → Linear Layout The usual way the notation editor displays staffs is known as linear layout: one staff on top of another, with each staff as a single, horizontally scrollable long line. The topmost staff is the current one by default, but you can switch to a different staff by Alt-clicking on it, or by using Move → Local Cursor → Cursor Up Staff ( Alt +Up ) and Cursor Down Staff ( Alt +Down ).
