In the attached file, I want to increase the space between the lyrics and the music, but only for one system, namely starting at meas.6, where it is quite crowded. I tried using the triangles at left but it adjusted the spacing for all systems. I just want to adjust the spacing for that one system. Thanks. Mac 10.6, Finale 2011.

To adjust the lyric baseline for only one system, you use the third triangle.

It all depends on how you look at it… You're using the third triangle from the left. I use the second triangle from the right! :mrgreen:
