Why do you need to do this? Just copy from the current location to
the new location. You do have to add the Ctrl key to the click on the
destination for copying (on Windows, of course), and occasionally for
some reason Finale decides to ignore it and not copy, but I've found
that usually closing Finale and re-opening makes it respond to the
command again.
I've never found it necessary to use scratch staves for copying
horiziontally within the same staff -- I only use it when composing
and needing to, say, exchange voices (where copying would destroy
material that you want to keep).
Overlapping the source and target measures used to erase the
articulations in only the overlapped area. So I do this by copy/paste
or with scratch staves, as suggested.
