You can optimise them out. There are utilities for this, or if you don't have TG TOols pro then you can just optimise them out of the score before entering any music. The space closes up when you optimise (though probably not with the spacing you want, grr!)

When you think that you are finished with all the parts, ie. orchestra, choir, and piano reduction, I find it simpler to "save as" for each score that you wish to finally have. You will need a "full orchestra and choir", a "choir with rehearsal piano", and then probably "Choir". That is 3 scores. Works fine for me.

All,



I am working with a piece for mixed choir and orchestra. This is the first
time I have this combination and I am not sure how to handle a piano
reduction that I want to have with the choral score. I need to have this in the score while working with it, but when finalizing and printing the parts, choral score with the piano reduction and the full score I of course do not want to have the piano reduction in the final version of the "full" score.



The most obvious way, I guess, would be to hide the piano reduction staves in the score prior to printing. But just use Staff Attributes and check "Hide staff" creates a hole in the score (if it is not on top or bottom) and I then need to rearrange the other staves which is not a straightforward thing, especially if you need to unhide the piano reduction staves again for
additionali editing..



Another way would be to define a part with all parts except for the desired ones and use this as the full score. But I just have a feeling this won't be
so easy to work with as a score.or am I wrong?



Is there a more elegant and professional way of working with this?



Using Fin2010 on Win.
