Is there an easy way to select "all lyrics" or "all lyrics on a staff"
I sometimes convert vocal parts to instrumental parts for students and like to remove lyrics for them.
Am I correct that (on my mac), the only way to select multiple syllables is to hold the "Command" key and click on each syllable one at a time?
Sibelius had a feature that let me select all the lyrics of one line on a staff. But I have not found a way to do this in MuseScore 3.
Since it is possible to "copy lyrics to the clipboard" in MuseScore 3, I am guessing that it ought to be possible to select all lyrics to delete of cut them. But I am just coming over from Sibelius and haven't found that in the online documentation.

Of course I found it right after posting my question.
Right click (for us mac users CONTROL + CLICK) on the text you want to select.

Several selection options appear. See image. Experiment.

I need to slow down and proof my posts before hitting enter.
Mac users, CONTROL+CLICK on the item you wish to select.

I'm glad you answered your question for others looking for the same answer. We see far to many follow ups that say "Never mind"

Thanks.
I get a little ahead of myself sometimes, but I want to be helpful.
Is there a way for me to delete my ill-advised/incorrect posts?

No, but you might still be able to edit them by clicking the 3 buttons to the right of your name on the post.
