How to recycle a score written for guitar comping for guitar soloing wit guitar? Musescore 4
Hello Musescore 4ers;
I'm a guitar player, but probably more of a guitar owner than, player.
The way my world goes is: I get a brilliant chord melody arrange by my teacher... who writes it by hand. Its a brilliant arraingment, but hard for my 72 year-old eys to sort out, so I transcribe it into Musescore 4.
Then, take that Muesescore 4 file, and write a comping line for the tune: in the attachment, I've written one that uses 3ds and 7ths.
What I want to do next is to 'recycle' that musescore 4 file with the comping, and use a copy of it to write a solo in a separate musescore 4 file.
I've attached the file with comping on 3rds and 7ths. I want to : Keep the chord fingering designations, and elimiate the notes in the score, so that I've got a 'fresh start' on the score where I can write in the notes from my solo.
I find that when I highlight a measure to try to erase the score notes, it will do that, but it will also erase the fingering diagrams, also.
How do I erase the notes in the score without earasing the chord diagrams?
thanks!
Old Jimma

N.B.: The ending measures containing those "stacked" diagrams will expand as you enter your solo.

Hello Musescorers:
I learned from the previous post how to remove the notes from a score without removing the fretboard diagrams.
I ran into a snag when I started to add new notes in the score: the fretboard diagrams vanished! See the attached score.
How do I get those fretboard diagrams to not disappear when I'm adding new notes to the score?
Thanks,
Old

Same method. Use the selection filter and uncheck fretboard diagrams. Then enter your notes.
Don't forget to set the filter to 'All' before closing the window.
