Slash Regions: making into a multi-bar slash region in parts

Hi all,

I wanted to see if there’s a way to make a single multi-bar slash region, akin to a multi-bar rest, when working on parts for a score.

Cheers!
Alex

Not with slash regions to my knowledge, but with bar repeat regions yes you can consolidate those.

Thank you very much for this (incredibly) speedy response, Lillie.

It might be interesting for the devs to think about having that option as a toggle, simply to tidy up (and shorten) part scores where the composer is confident the players will be able to improvise while counting.

What I may do is simply remove the slash region and make it into a multi-bar rest, hide the rest, insert text slashes within the bar, and keep the instructions to improvise.
