I believe there is a setting for each staff in the staff attributes dialog (Staff Tool) which can prevent optimization for any staff, if you choose that option. You can choose that option for staff #2 or, when in the process of optimizing the staves, you can choose to have Finale ask you whether or not you want individual staves eliminated or kept. Either of these methods should work.

Has anyone came into this and eventually found a solution?Chuck Israels
There's, let's say, a system with three staffs: staff 1 for clarinet and
staff 2 and 3 grouped for piano.
There's a system where the clarinet don't play and where the piano plays
a melody written on the bottom staff (staff 3); these notes have to be
played by both hands so some of them have been moved to the upper staff
(staff 2) with the Note Mover Tool.
Now, when it comes to optimize, staff #2 disappears as well as #1. Is
there any way I can set to maintain staff #2 visible while optimizing
without adding invisible notes or else?
Thank you
