Re: [Finale] Hiding a staff in part of a piano score

2016-11-29 Thread christopher.smith
If you're on a recent version of Finale, go to Edit Group in the Staff Tool. 
Select Hide Staves Normally for the group (rather than Only Hide when All 
Staves are empty.) Now the "Hide Empty Staves" command in the Staff Tool should 
work as you expect.

If you are on an earlier version of Finale, use Optimise instead of Hide Empty 
Staves. The first part is the same.

You don’t say which version of Finale, or which platform.  But it sounds like a 
Hide Empty Staves or Optimized staves situation.  If you own TGTools you can 
fix it with Staff List Manager. 

I had a similar issue with staves not showing up in a file I’d been working on 
for a long time.  There turned out to be a fair amount of corruption in the 
file that no one could fix.  I still haven’t fixed it for good, but TGT was my 
means for getting things back.

More info on your situation could prove useful.

[Finale] Hiding a staff in part of a piano score

2016-11-29 Thread Jim Fischer
I am prepping a score with 8 instruments. On most of the Grand Piano part i 
don’t need to see the left hand
but later in the medley i do need to see the left hand. I did this about 6 
years ago but can’t remember how. Any help?
Also the goal is page reduction.

Thanks, Jim
