Shared Copies Passages of Music

Dorico
1

Hello,
It would be very nice to have Shared copies feature just like Cubase.
This is a small example here but the shared copies feature would be even better in bigger passages.

for example when I move a note in a certain passage the shared copies part also get affected.

an excellent idea in my view. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve copied a section and then decided a few things should be changed in both. Of course it’s possible to re-copy the section but much better if you the option to enable a shared copy feature.

Particularly good would be if you could mark out a small section within the main selection which should not be changed as it often happens that the vast majority of a section should be repeated but there may be some changes of instrumentation or an added line. I myself hardly ever make use of the standard repeat feature in Dorico – that’s more for verses in conventional choral/vocal music arrangements, it seems to me although of course it does have other functions. I also admit to always losing the place in marked repeats while singing :confused: but let’s not digress…

Finale has this function via the “mirror tool”, but it doesn’t work all that well.
