The only way I know to un-mirror a staff is to simply delete the mirror connection. To do this, use the mirror tool and click each mirrored measure and click DELETE. It will be time consuming for a lengthy piece. It might be quicker and easier to simply use the staff-tool and delete the tab-staff and then recreate it and use mass-mover tool to copy the notation to the tab and then edit it as you wish.

While the concept of mirrors seems inviting, I find that rarely do I ever have EXACTLY the same music in different spots and mentally I do better to know I have to actually enter and edit each apparent repetition individually. And it makes editing such as you want to do possible.

Good luck!

MassEdit menu and select Utility and then select Change Lowest Fret.
This might actually accomplish what you want to do.  Maybe not, I
haven't tried it but didn't know if you were aware of it being there.

Dear David

Thank you for answering, you're the first, actually. But Change Lowest Fret
in MassEdit Menu doesn't work either in a mirrored staff. Nothing seems to
work in a mirrored staff. Perhaps there's a way to 'un-mirror' a staff?

I can copy, of course, but copying does not have the obvious

mirroring has.

Any help appreciated.
