Can this be done in Musescore 2?

• Feb 16, 2016 - 19:17

Hello to all.
I have a theme written with several instruments, and i want to add a part in the end just with the chords, like in the picture. Can this be done?
Thank you

Here's a way:
1. Append a vertical frame to the end of the score to contain an image of the chord chart.
2. Notate the chord chart as a separate score, and use the image capture tool (camera icon) to copy.
3. Paste the chord chart image into the vertical frame created in 1.

Regards.

That would work, but unless I'm missing something, a simpler way is to just put the chord stuff after the rest on the first staff (or any staff really - depends on which transposition you want I guess) then turn on Style / General / Hide empty staves.

I think you are misunderstanding my suggestion. You don't need to add any additional notes, and you don't need to hide notes either. The option I mentioned does everything correctly automatically. So just enter the notes for the first few measures into all staves just as your example shows, then starting in the next measure, enter the chords into the bass part leaving the other staves blank. When you're done, just turn on the option I mentioned and it magically turns into exactly what you want.

Sorry for the delay answer.
Thank you Marc!
I'll give it a try to!

[edit]
That's what i think.
In my example, all of the measures have notes (before the chords part), but this model as to be applied in other songs, where it's not always the case, and it will hide staves I don't want to.
It will be good to have the option to hide empty staves, but just in the selection.
Thank you!
