copy-paste just-only-exclusively music
I have an extremely simple task - to copy and paste just music leaving chord symbols, dynamics, lyrics... everything_else (that exists already) intact. I couldn't find any clear solution here. please help.
thank you.

thanks for reminding of this magic wand, but there's still a problem.
say I have a measure with lyrics, dynamic marks etc, and I want to paste music from another bar here. yes, when I copy just what I choose in the filter, it doesn't copy anything else, but when I paste, it would delete what's there already, like pasting null lysrics, dynamics etc... I wonder how to avoid that and keep my previous work.

Do you mean you want to overwrite the notes of, say, two bars while leaving in place what was already there (lyrics, dynamics, e.g.)?
If so, and if the notes are different, are you sure that these lyrics and dynamics must be the same? This can't be a frequent use case, but it must happen I suppose.
Could you please attach a score or simply an excerpt (select a few measures concerned / menu "File"/ "Save selection" ) to see this use case - and specifying what and where you want to copy and paste.
