Hide Empty staves - persistence into MusicXml
During my perusal of changes, I found this aspect - Hide Empty Staves.
This is just great, I thought. I can now reproduce the scores I have to transcribe to pass them into my application.
I was quite disappointed to find that this aspect seems in no way to be persisted into a MusicXml export.
I could be done, quite simply according to Michael Good, by adding the following to the first measure to be hidden :
<attributes>
<staff-details print-object="no"/>
</attributes>
with the following when the measures are to be displayed again :
<attributes>
<staff-details print-object="yes"/>
</attributes>
Could this be integrated ?
PS: note for lasconic - yes you are right, I do code, but I am just starting my new business and have too little time (far too little my wife says) www.zimrahapp.com

Since your business will use MusicXML, that's one more good reason to help :)
Could you point to Michael's answer, for future reference? Would that work for the full staff along the whole score? Are Sib/Fin supporting this?
You are right lasconic, I should have given the reference I was referring to.
Add extra parts mid score - Michael Good's response
It should work for all of the stave. Otherwise put, it should work between the two given points, for all the intervening measures.
As far as Sibelius and Finale are concerned, I have no idea, not having access to them.
