Condensing issue - rests

Hi all, how would I make it so rests DO show up in the clarinet 2/3? I would like clarinet 2/3 to look like clarinet 1. I think this is more clear than the default numbering of 2s of 3s that Dorico uses. As a player, typically when I see divisi within a clarinet part, it looks like how I made clarinet 1 look.

I tried to remedy this in with a manual condensing change, but it didn’t fix it.


It’s always easier to troubleshoot condensing issues with the project itself, rather than a picture of the project.

Would you be able to create a copy of your project and cut it down to just a handful of bars from this flow with only the clarinet players remaining, and attach it here? If it’s still too large after cutting it down in this way, try applying the Silence playback template.

It should only take you a few minutes to do this, and it saves others (me included) from having to try to artificially recreate the situation in an empty project, which may not reproduce the specific conditions you’re experiencing in any case.

Here you go!

Increase the minimum length to hide rests for silent player to (anything above 2)
