This has been covered before, but the instructions don't seem to match up with Finale 25. I need to delete a cue staff in a piano score, but only in a few systems. Could someone run through the steps in Finale 25? Thanks very much.

If the staves are empty, select the ones you want to delete with the Staff tool and pick Hide Empty Staves from the menu. If they're not empty, apply the Hide Staff (and Collapse) staff style instead.

Also, to avoid any future problems, use Finale's proper terminology. "Delete" completely removes a staff, while "Hide" makes it not appear in a selected area.
It can be a bit confusing when you think in terms of "pages of music", but once you think of Finale's fundamental format as one long continuous staff (ie: scroll view) it makes sense.
