Hi all,
this:
The second horn actually has bass clef from the second bar, and then g clef again in the fourth when the first horn enters.
How do I get the bass clef to show in the condensed music?
Hello Dorico specialists,
I’m just struggling with a similar problem: I want to condense several vocal voices of a recitative in one (smaller) system for the continuo layout. The condensing function does not take over the changes of the clefs (and the lyrics are also missing).
For a different solution, I also experimented with an additional voice (voce in the score) and copy-paste (reduce) the particular voices in it, but here is the same problem with missing changes of clefs and missing indications of the changes (short name of voice/instrument).
My file for the whole act has 20 flows with ca. 10 recitatives, so I am searching for a practicable workaround for the whole file (for this reason I cannot work with cues, because they are too small and the cue size changes globally for the whole project).
I am trying the condensing function for the first time and have read some discussions here, but I still do not know how to solve this issue…
Thank you for your help!

Condensed staves use the clef of the first player on that staff (usually the lowest-numbered instrument in that section).
You could try duplicating the bass clef on the top staff in the condensing group, and if necessary, hide that clef in the first instrument’s part layout.
Great, I’ll try that!
Yes, this does work, but I have hundreds of these clef changes in my edition and I would be glad about a more “automatic” solution.
Thank you for your ideas!
