Changing the amount if staves part way through an arrangement
Can anybody tell me if it is possible to change the amount of staves part-way through an arrangement? I am arranging a choral piece which starts with 16 bars of soprano only before going into 4-part. Do i need to create 4 staves and put in rests or can i change from 1 to 4 after the solo? Thanks!

Create all staves and instruments you need for the entire score, anter all the notes you need, then 'hide empty staves'
First, you never need to put in rests for parts that are empty in a given passage - MuseScore automatically fills in measure rests. So create all four staves, but just fill the others in where you need them. Then, if you want the empty staves to not display at all, just turn on style / general style /' hide empty staves.
