Unable to add slur to top staff
I have been creating a choral score which is SATB + a Descent staff which is empty for much of the piece. I therefore used "Hide Empty Staves" to hide the Descant staff on most pages.

I have been trying to create some SA + TB scores in a "hymn book" style with just one set of lyrics between the two staves. When I view or print the score there is a lot of white space...

Thank you very much for the rapid reply. That solves my problem and shows that I hadn't really understood "note velocity".
