Extend Selection to the Bottom of the Score

I’m liking the command to extend selection to the end of the flow. Is there an equivalent to extend a selection straight down to the bottom of the score?

Shift + down arrow?

This will select one stave at a time but if you hold the down arrow down the selection will flow straight down…

There are sometimes rhythmic elements in a bar that will not select, for example, if there is a note in the previous bar that is tied into the bar that you are sweeping through with the above key stroke, the tied note at the start of the bar will not be included in the selection.

Other users may have a more elegant solution :slight_smile:

I like it, too.
The more commands can be done without using the mouse, the better.

Command-up / down arrow to extend to the top / bottom staff.

Right, I’m using this. In a big score, I gotta sit and watch the cursor crawl down the staff, and maybe some staves are out of view… I was hoping there was a shortcut to do it in one shot, like the horizontal version…

If you’re using the ⌘ key, it should select all the way in one keystroke.
