No, you have to shift/click then delete staves without.
As Robert has pointed out, MM have confiscated Staff List for
expressions en bloc, the philosophy behind seems to be that it is
more intuitive to work on the screen instead of consulting dialogue
boxes, means also plugins. I have always liked to use TGTools and
Pattersons plugs, but a more slim simple FINALE is always welcome. We
can still do the same. With lesser effort.

When applying expressions (say dynamics) using the new drag method,

a way to make it only apply to staves with notes in?
Say the 2nd trombone isn't playing in a measure, but I want to ff
to all the
other brass, I use the metatool-drag to enclose all brass, and
Finale puts
an ff on the 2nd trombone part as well, in an empty measure. This
doesn't
seem right to me.
I know I could just drag the brass above the empty measure and then
drag
those below, but surely it should be able to see that the empty
measure does
not need the dynamic.
