New song on the same paper?
Hallo! How can I add a new song on the same paper? I want to compose a few songs for children on the same paper but I can't found options for adding the new staff, new lines with free space for the Name of new song on the same paper. Theses songs are very short, it is not logic to writte new composition on the second paper, I want to use free space of the paper. Help! I hope somebody will understand what I need...

Apply a section break to the last measure of the (1st) song, append a vertical frame and more measures and voila...

Hallo. Thank you for help, I found the options but now have another problem. I have the new staff with it's name of song (second new song) on the same paper, but the first measure of the new song is actually a continuation of the first song because it says that it is the eighth measure (first song has 7 measures), instead first of the new song. So when I click on playback everything sounds together, connected, actually everything is just one first song, not two separated songs on the same paper. What should I do?

Did you use a section break?
If so, please share the score, so we can check what's going wrong

Ooh, I finally solved the problem! Instead of section breaks, I pressed the wrong option system breaks. Thanks for help !
Otherwise, I want in the second song for the first measure to be incomplete ie. lead-in notes. How can I do this if my paper is already open, if I have not marked it in the initial table which opens before starting to write any notes?

Change the measure properties, actual duration and exclude from measure count

Thanks for explaining how to do the pre-beat.
If I am properly understanding what you want to do, then personally I think I would not use Musescore to combine multiple songs in a single composition. I would compose each short song independently in Musescore and export each as a PDF file. Then use a PDF editor (there are a number of free ones you can experiment with) to combine them. That gives a proper title for each one, proper renumbering of measures, etc, and you can adjust the layout to your preference.

I saved the problem, thank you.
Hallo,
all these problems I tried to find in free tutorials for music score but I couldn't find them. I need these for my pupils.
1. I want to change the order of the written songs on the paper. How can I do this, is there an option?
2. Also, I am interested in how can I copy - paste all my written songs on another paper? I can copy paste only one song, but I can't do it for all songs together with their titles
3. And can I have a preview on both papers at the same time? I would like to work alternately on two papers without obligation to leave the first paper in order to come on another paper
