View one track at a time?

• Feb 9, 2017 - 04:46

Hi. I'm trying to print out different tracks upon an arrangement that I have. I have a master sheet and I want to print out multiple copies of the arrangement for each instrument involved. I cannot copy and paste each individual track into a new document for some reason, it claims that the "triplets cannot cross barlines" which is absurd considering A. It doesnt seem as if such a folly exists in the written music and B. The song plays fine in the master sheet document anyway.

How do I view the score so that I am only looking at one instrument at a time? I feel as if I were able to do this, I could proceed with printing out a score for each instrument as I wish, converting these individual viewings into PDFs and editing them accordingly.

Probably the reason you are seeing the tuplet message is that there were time signatures changes involved so the barlines are not in the same places in the source and destination, or else the area you are copying starts on a different beat than where you are pasting. Without seeing the actual score and steps to reproduce, we can't say for sure.

But as noted above, it's probably beside the point - you almost certainly don't want copy and paste, but the built in "linked part" facility.

The best thing to do is to upload the score here. It seems to me that there are probably multiple time signatures already used, some in 8 and some in 4. We could look at it and give you the best way to overcome what appear to be the limitations you are dealing with.
