suppressing the bass clef at certain points
I laid out my score in SATB closed form. Now I want to suppress the bass clef at certain places and not others. How do I mark the score so that when I use edit instrument and remove bass clef it works. As I do it now the bass clef gos everywhere. Should I be using select to select the places where the bass is to go and if so how?

If I understand correctly, there is no need to work to work that hard - just go to Format / Style and turn ion "Hide empty staves", and MsueScore does the rest. Do wait until you've actually entered the notes where you do want the bottom staff, though, or the whole staff will disappear!

Many thanks, Marc

close but no cigar. I attach my latest. I"ve marked as tacet the staves which should be hidden. When I do format / style /hide empty staves nothing happens.
By the way I had to reduce my display settting to 135 if I wanted to see the OK button in the format style panel.

Make those 'tacet' invisible, then the staves will disappear too. A (visible) staff text makes a staff to not get hidden, as in isn't empty then.
Also better keep the men's part in bass clef, I find it quite difficult to jump between clefs during a song.
At least but them into G Cleff ottava bassa and move notes down an octav, so it sounds right?

Yes that worked. Thanks for your suggestion. How about this?
keep tenor solo in treble clef.
Move the mannen part into the bass clef at bar 29
Start the mannen and the dames each on a new line
Can I automatically rewrite the mannen in the bass clef whan I move the notes?
