Hi all,
I highlight my entire measure stack from measures 75-94. I want these measures deleted from the score, not cleared. I hit delete and it clears the contents of the measures. I go EDIT (or right click) and the "Delete Measure Stack" option is gray (Not allowed.)
I am working on files that I did not create. Any chance there is some sort of "lock" that won;t allow me to do this?
Thanks!
David

Is it possible that there are hidden staves?
Have you tried Clear, first? Can you then select Delete Measure Stack?

There was a recent post that indicated that for certain operations (insert measures for one) the program takes a prolonged period of time to complete the command. Maybe you need to wait a bit (up to a minute?). Get a cup of coffee, pet the dog, do 25 pushups…
