Copying different voices into a Piano Staff
I have four voices: Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Bass.
There is no separate piano accompaniment.
The Soprano + Alto voices go into the treble clef of the piano staff. Tenor + Bass voices go into the bass clef of the piano staff.
I have copied the soprano part into the treble clef of the piano staff. How do I copy the Alto clef into the same staff?
I tried converting it to voice 2, but it deletes the soprano portion when I paste it on the piano staff.
Please guide me. I have attached a sample file for your reference.

I find it often easier to copy the bottom voices first, meaning not having to change the source.

Thank you.
See: Sample_4.mscz
With a closer way:
- in Edit -> Voices: exchange voices 1.2, Alto and Bass parts
- Copy-paste respectively Alto in treble clef piano, and Bass in bass clef piano
- Finally, copy-paste Soprano part in treble clef piano, and Tenor part in bass clef piano

Thank you.
The way to avoid deleting a voice when you paste is not use the selection filter and uncheck that voice before you copy. Then there will be nothing to paste into that voice.
