No, I think you are just missing a trick - when you have finished with
one movement use the little triangular marker to collapse its frame, so
you only need one movement open at a time.
Nevertheless, if you have a large number of staffs I'm not sure the
interface will cope - it would need scroll bars to appear - hmm, I just
tried that - it *does* have a vertical scroll bar appearing. Is that
visible (right or left side), I tried 22 staffs in each of 19 movements,
all fine.
