16Normally, Mup determines how many measures to put on each score and how many
17scores to put on each page. You can force Mup to move to the next score with
18the &quot;newscore&quot; statement, or to the next page with a &quot;newpage&quot; statement.
19Here is an example:
20<BR><PRE>
211: c;d;e;f;
22bar
231: e;f;g;;
24bar
25newscore // go to next score
261: 2c;;
27bar
281: e;f;g;;
29bar
30newpage // go to next page
311: e;g;2c;
32bar
33</PRE><BR>
34</P>

36You can temporarily change the indent for the new score
37by specifying &quot;leftmargin=<I>num</I>,&quot; where <I>num</I> is a floating point
38number of inches or centimeters (depending on the current setting of
39<A HREF="param.html#units">the units parameter.)</A>
40The new score will then be indented by that much, overriding the value
41of
42<A HREF="param.html#leftmar">the leftmargin parameter.</A>
43</P>
44<P>
45In a similar way, you can specify &quot;rightmargin=<I>num</I>,&quot; which
46will affect
47<A HREF="param.html#rightmar">the right margin</A>
48on the <B>previous</B> score. This might
49be used, for example, if you want a piece to end with a
50shorter than normal score.
51<BR><PRE>
52newscore leftmargin=1.2 rightmargin=2.7
53</PRE><BR>
54The equals sign is optional in these margin overrides.
