My file is a single voice, 8-bar phrase in 3/4 time for alto sax. The first two bars have whole measure rests, the remaining six bars have notes. It is a single staff; there are no multiple staves to collapse.
Originally, I was able to make combine the opening two bars with the symbol resembling this: |--2--|, but some reason, it changed back to 2 bars of whole note rests.
The user guide says to type 'qcmr' for 'quick collapse multiple rests'. This does not work.
The guide also says you can turn on or turn off the check mark for Collapse Multiple Measure Rests in the Format menu--but I don't see Collapse Multiple Measure Rests in the Format menu
. Where is it?
I've attached my notation file.
Thank you for shedding any light on this frustrating problem.
