It sure seems like there ought to be an easier way to do this function. It would sure be nice if the move/copy layers function could become move, copy, or merge layers.

Move the notes from the layers other than 1 to new staves by creating the staves, choosing SHOW ACTIVE LAYER ONLY, switching to layer 2, 3, or 4 and then highlighting and dragging that music to one of the new staves and erasing it from it's original staff. Repeat it for all the music you want moved to layer 1, using a different new staff for each layer (or many new staves if you have many original staves with separate layers, so each staff's worth of each layer is on it's own unique staff.)
Then use the move layers tool from the Mass Edit menu to convert all your new extra staves to layer 1.
Then use MassEdit/Utilities/ImplodeMusic to put all the appropriate staves together into one original staff.

I have music I scanned with SharpEye. It is in pretty good shape except that Sharp thinks it is doing me favors by shoving notes into different layers. I want to get everything to layer 1.
I would have thought this would be easy, but I don't see any way to do it. There is a mass edit utility that allows me to move music from one layer to another, but it OVERLAYS the notes that are in the target layer. I want to gather up the notes that are in any of the 4 layers and have them all moved to layer 1.
Am I missing something obvious here? I don't see anything in the TGTools that would do this either.
