Formatting parts via a "style"
Hi all
I've created my score (for Big Band) so I "only" have 17 parts to format. Is there a way to make all the parts look the "same" after creating say Alto 1.
By look the same I do not mean Titles Headers and Footers and fonts etc.. I am ok with those applying to all parts.
I mean e.g. all bars with a rehearsal mark in them to be at the beginning of the line.
or
eg only 8 staves per page
or
eg the top line of each page to 'line up'
I realise that there would still be work to be done on other parts but it would save tremendous amounts of time. I can't imagine doing it for a symphonic score!
Thanks

Thank you for pointing me to that. I'll check it out tomorrow. Much appreciated.

Hi
Sorry to be a nuisance but....
I have downloaded the Plugin you suggested. It is enabled (see attached screenshot). When back in the score (on the part that I have formatted to my satisfaction) I click on the Plugins dropdown menu, click "Apply layout breaks to parts" ... nothing happens. I'd appreciate you pointing out the error of my ways.

Not at all, I'm glad to help, but I'm not the plugin's creator, you could try

Thank you. That little video was very clear. I now know the order in which it should be carried out and what should happen. In my case, it still doesn't. I'll continue to play with it until the light strikes me! Thank you again.
