joining movements in 2 files into 1 file
Musescore 1.3 win xp sp3
I have a work in five sections in five different files. I wish to join them together into 1 file and keep the ancillary VBoxes for subtitles etc.
They do all have the same instruments but different layouts

Currently the only solution is copy paste and carefully check the score.

thanks, you are amazingly fast, it does seem an obvious requirement to produce large works in several files, perhaps a future feature request. There is so much to be admired in your wonderful software, congratulations.

2.0 (which you can try out in the form of the nighly builds) will have an album feature for this.

I am quite new at using musescore seriously so I will give that a miss for now, but appreciate the suggestion.

Since copy/paste doesn't get all markings or other settings, this isn't really viable as a way of managing large scores, at least not on an ongoing basis. The Album feature in 2.0 does sound good. Meanwhile, if you have a large work you are breakng into several files - perhaps for performance reasons (MuseScore gets slower with larger scores) than maybe generating PDF's and assemblng ith soething like "pdfsam" (PDF Split and Merge, free / open source) would be a good way to go for now.

I haven't had any performance problems yet on my zippy laptop but it is another justification for splitting large files and editing in chunks like you would a large word document, wouldn't you?
By the way, the spellchecker doesn't know musescore or spellchecker.
I didn't know about PDFsam, very interesting.
Thanks for intelligent reply.
