[Finale] ADDING STAVE after formatting parts
How do we add a stave after having formatting all the existing parts. Example: I have an orchestra score, with parts generated and formatted. Then I discover I need to add a second keyboard part. So I add it to the score and fill it in. When I go to manage parts (or edit parts), it does not appear in the parts list. So I need to generate a part. When I hit Generate Parts, it wipes out (after warning me) all the formatting on all of the existing parts. There must be some way around that debacle (and waste of HOURS of work). How do I generate a new part without re-generating all the existing parts? All the best, KIM R ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

No, you just make a new part instead of generating them all again. Manage parts-new part and then open the part definition part to add the staves. It's pretty easy Sent from my iSomething -- On Apr 29, 2012, at 11:12 PM, Kim Richmond jazz...@kimrichmond.com wrote: How do we add a stave after having formatting all the existing parts.

Greetings Kim, I have recently been working with score manager as well, and have successfully added parts in this manner to a score that is already formatted. It helps to work with a copy of the file until you determine how well it is going to work. (I am working on an 24 iMac with the most recent version of Lion and Fin2012a) Let us know what works for you!
