Re: Finale- Layers

: Hi,
: Could someone please tell me how I can combine 2 layers into 1? Is it possible?

: Thanks,

Oh, man, I've done it before.
Hmmm...

Copy everything to a second staff (or blank measure(s) after)
Use the Mass Edit tool and delete layer 2 from the original, and layer
1 from the copy.
Use the ME tool to switch layers in the 2nd staff (moving the notes to
layer 1).
Then, there's a way to copy and merge the data, rather than
overwriting it. It seems like this is in Mass Edit too, but there may
be a merge data command. I'm getting my programs confused.
There may be an even simpler way but in the old days, this is how I
seem to remember having to do it. Seems like everything's possible in
Finale, but somtimes you have to trick the program!

Sorry I couldn't be of more help - I'm sure someone will offer
suggestions!
Good Luck.
