Hi Chris,

Oh, okay. I misunderstood.

To clear a selected length of a longer Staff Style, you can set up an an iKey (as I have always done -- I'm not sure if I even knew there was already a built-in shortcut), or use the contextual menu.

Cheers,

Darcy,

That deletes the entire bar for it's unbroken length, not just the selected measure (or part of a measure.) That was the great function that the Clear key had before. I would typically apply slash notation to the whole staff, then clear out a bar or two or a beat or two here and there to put specialised content in. That work flow is just a little harder now without the ability to clear a selected section with one keystroke.

Hi Chris,

Select the STAFF STYLE (the horizontal stripe above the measure) -- not the measure -- and hit the delete key.

But as for Staff Styles, the Delete key clears the measure contents even when I am in the Staff Tool. The Clear key used to clear staff styles beautifully in one stroke; now I have to go to the damned menu every time.
