Header/Footer
I have attempted to apply the Header and Footer settings to all parts and it does not seem to work. I have been arranging for an 18 piece big band and I have to set the header and footer for each part. Am I doing something wrong? Format Style - Header & Footer - Apply to all parts....
The settings don't get applied to all parts.

If you have already opened the Parts before you made changes to the Head & Footer settings, then you can apply the Reset option to each part to pick up those changes.
"Also, how can I change the default setting for header and footer?"
Perhaps set up an empty score with your preferred instrumentation, make the desired changes to Header & Footer, and then:
- either save the empty score in your Templates folder?
- or use the menu option Format > Save Style... to create a Style file to apply to future scores?

Daniel, thank you for your response. What I am gathering from your response is that if I open all of the parts and then do an apply to all parts it will work. I will give it a try, thanks again for your response.

Sorry if I wasn't clear, that wasn't what I was suggesting. Ideally you should do all your changes to Header and Footer before you open any Parts. Then the Parts should pick up those new Header and Footer settings automatically.
The Reset action per Part is only required if you make changes to Header and Footer after you have started opening and changing Parts.

I opened all the parts and applied the Header and Footer that I wanted for all parts and selected "Apply to All Parts" and it WORKED. In the future I will take your suggestion and apply the Header and Footer info before opening any parts. Thank you so much for your help, you saved me a ton of time doing each part individually.
