Re: [Finale] Multi Meas Rests Again

Yeah, it's a bug. They are SUPPOSED to display, and they claim to have fixed 
it, but it isn't fixed. The workaround I suggested is just part of my routine 
now.

For Staff Styles not showing, I have a quicker fix for that particular bug.

In the score, select the Staff Tool. Select All (command A on my my Mac). From 
the Staff Menu, select "use selected Staff Styles for score and parts". 

Done. 

Do this at the end, just before you start working on parts, and before you 
create multipmeasure rests.

For Chords not showing, I've never seen that particular bug.

Heh... "compressed rests?" You used to use MusicTime or Encore, didn't you? :)

I think you mean the Measure tool, but that should have worked.

To make sure everything is actually clear, use the Mass Edit tool,
select the measures, and hit "clear." (Unless you're on Windows, in
which case you would hit "Backspace.")

That's exactly what you *don't* want to do. If there's anything real
in the measures (including rests, whole or otherwise), they will not
group together. There's a plug-in to change all real whole rests to
default rests; It's in the "Note, Beam, and Rest Editing" submenu.

Another thing to try would be to check the Measure Attributes for
these measures and see if "Break Multi-Measure Rest" attribute is
checked. That seems unlikely since other extracted parts are fine, but
it's worth a shot. Similarly, there may be some sort of measure
expression that is unseen (but, nevertheless, attached) that is set to
break the rest.

No matter what's attached to the measures that are making them
uncompressable, you can probably get rid of it by selecting the
measires with the Mass Edit Tool and selecting "Clear Items..." from
the Mass Edit menu. Tell it to clear "Everything," and then creating a
MM rest with the Measure tool should work.
