Multi-Measure Rests
I'm trying to use the multi-measure rests for a drum set part in a full orchestra score that starts at the measure 19, stops at the 32th and back again from the measure 63, to the end of the piece. Isn't there a way to combine all the rests into one multi-measure rest for each silent part, instead of what is happening here? (see the image) . Thanks in advance.

Please share the actual score itself. For some reason MuseScore likely thinks those measures are not empty.

Here it is.

What you mean is that, no matter what, if there are no empty measures in the full score, there won't be a possibility to combine rests the way I'm trying to do? I'm confused.

Not what I meant no, although in your case here it is true.. because you didn't create a part at all. You marked the other instruments invisible, but they are still there for this logic.
If you instead go into File > Parts and create the actual Drumset part, you'll see that those multimeasure rests turn out way better.

Jeetee, thank you so much for helping me with this. As a matter of fact, the previous song I wrote for orchestra was in MuseScore, but a friend of mine, with better orchestra score skills, fixed for me some stuff like hairpins, dynamics etc in Sibelius, because he is not used to MuseScore. In fact, creating parts in MuseScore is something I never used before. Anyway, thanks again. By the way, the Drumset now is perfect and in one page only.
