Printing out seprate parts
I would Like to be able to separate my music. Like one page for the tuba one page for the drums, one page for the guitar, ect. This would be very helpful.

There is basic support for it. Not linked to the score yet.
But you can create a file per part in File -> Parts.

Not in my experience. File/parts brings up a dialogue box that leads nowhere - or I have not yet found out how to use it. It lists the instruments in 'ghost' form and then if you click on one it only offers the option of 'create'. If you click 'create' it just returns to the score.
I have a 40-page score from which I wish to print out individual parts for the 15 instruments who are going to play it. How do I do that?
I am now using 9.6 pre-release beta.

You need to select "new" in parts. Then you need to select the Staff you want exported as a part, enter the appropriate info and then select "create part". A new file should then result with the selected part split out.

That's sounding very promising. How do I find the separated out part so that I can print it?

It will appear as a new file in Musescore. Try it, you'll see. You won't do any damage.
The parts facility is located in the "File" menu.

Yes indeed. It worked perfectly. Thanks for that.

Now, this might be a contestant for "stupid question of the year", but I don't seem to have a "File" menu. Is this a feature of the 0.9.2 version? Is it then impossible to extract parts?
In reply to Missing "File" menu? by Pastor Paradox
Pastor Paradox, The current version of MuseScore is 0.9.6.3. I suggest you upgrade.
After just discovering MuseScore, I was even more delighted to find your brass band template, however, there seems to be a problem with the Brass Band_0.mscx template. When I start a new file using this template, every line of the score says 'InstrumentLong' rather than the true name of the instrument. As I am using the program on Ubuntu Linux, I did have to rename the archive (to Band.mscx) before linux would recognise it. I copied the new brass band 'instruments.xml' into the templates directory instead of the original. I also tried extracting the 'Brass Band.mscx' file from the archive and putting it in the templates directrory as 'brass.msc'. Opening this had the same effect as the fullarchive. Do you have any ideas how I could make your template work please?
