Did you find the Help text that comes with that command? Command: MultiMeasureRests Information: Creates a multi-measure rest from the whole measure rests after the cursor, or inserts the number of rests you specify after the cursor, making them a multi-measure rest. Multi-measure rests will be typeset as individual whole measure rests if any other part being typeset has music during them. There was a typo in that text which I have now fixed ("if" was "in"). You didn't describe what happened when you used this command - the command is working as described... Richard > I welcome your advice.
