Deleting Blank Bars
I can't delete blank bars at the end of my score. I've tried shift click delete and ctrl click delete but neither works. How can I resolve this issue?

How about 'Edit' > 'Delete Selected Measures'?

Thank you! That works perfectly! Shame it's not in any of the manuals that I've looked at!

Here Measure operations -> Delete

my muse score says delete but not delete selected measures. It still doesn't delete them though. Any ideas?
In reply to my muse score says delete… by julietnewman
I'm guessing you are looking under Edit, look under Tools instead (such is the downside of relying on seven-year-old threads, if you did a search to find this one, better to keep looking to find something more recent). And the current name is Remove Selected Range, if you have the latest version (3.2.3 as of today, will be 3.3. soon).
Selecting the empty bars then using CTRL+Delete works too

On PC, it's ctrl-del. On Mac, it might not be. since many (most? all?) Mac keyboards don't have a true delete key. Instead, the key marked delete actually functions as backspace. On some Macs (many? most? all?), Fn-Delete will do a true delete. So I might expect Ctrl-Fn-Delete to do the job. Or maybe Cmd-Fn-Delete, since Mac uses Cmd for many of the things PC uses Ctrl for.

It's in the handbook in Measure operations : Mac: ⌘+Fn+Backspace

Yes, Cmd Fn Del worked on my Mac. Thanks!

Worked! Thanks.
Would you mind if I troubled you?
I downloaded a midi file, saved it as a musescore file and is all a mess. I am trying to sort it out and cannot delete one of the staves, trying various things. I would be grateful if you could help

In reply to Please help deleting whole bars by ohdearme
Not if you don't attach the file here ;-)
Except maybe for the hint to select the bar to delete and then use Ctrl-Del or on a Mac ⌘+Fn+Backspace
To delete an entire stave go to add->instruments and delete from that dialog's list
Select the empty bars then use CTRL+Delete it works
