Connecting 2 or more scores in a new one. (Old Album function)
Is it possible now in MuseScore 4.5.2 to make a new score out of 2 or more existing one?. I did not found jet this option. If it is not possible now, will this be implemented in future 5.0 version ?.

It's been promised since 3.0 but still hasn't happened, so I've given up waiting on it

Thank You very much for your answer. I was asking for this possibility because I have to connect 3 scores. I can not use the command "Copy/Paste" because it does not transfer the specified "Tempo" for single notes. The scores contain a lot of variations in tempo, velocity etc. which are not "standard" covered in the Tempo Palette for example: piu mosso, meno mosso, poco a poco dim. poco rit. etc.
If you have a good idea to solve my problem, i will appreciate it very much.

Depends on what you want the scores connected for.
If you want the scores connected in order to print them as a single book, take all page numbers (and similar) out of the score. Export as .PDF, then combine the three .PDF files into one with Adobe Acrobat or another similar tool.
If you want the scores connected in order to have them play as a single file, export as .WAV (or another appropriate format) and combine them in Audacity or another DAW-like tool.
It would not be impossible to copy/paste them; it would be extremely difficult and time-consuming. To do so, you would append enough measures to the end of one. You would add a Section Break from the Layout palette or panel (depending on your version). You would manually add the initial tempo to the first of the new measures. Then you would copy and paste small pieces of the second score.
For example, the first measure is a pickup. Copy/paste that as one piece, then correct the Actual duration of the measure. Then there are five measures before Start Repeat and Segno symbols. Copy/paste that as one piece, then add the Start Repeat barline and the Segno. Then there are 16 measures before a Fine. Copy/paste those as one piece, then add the Fine symbol. Then there are 12 more measures before the End Repeat and 1st and 2nd voltas. Copy/paste these as one piece and manually add the End Repeat and the volta. And so forth. (You can see what I mean by "extremely difficult and time-consuming".)
