Edit->Remove Rests only removes some rests

As you can see from the attached project file and picture, after using Edit->Remove rests I am still left with a few rests, immediately following some grace-notes. The rests also appear to be changed to explicit rests. I’ve tried using begin voice/end voice and other things, but nothing seems to work for me. Any suggestions much appreciated!

Thanks!

Grace notes have to be attached to something real, in the same voice, essentially.

You could select those rests, custom scale them down to 1% and set their opacity (color transparency) to 0, effectively making them invisible.

(Just make sure that when you print/export, you do so in “Color” not “Mono” as the opacity setting needs “Color” to work iirc)
