Greetings. I am wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if MS doesn't support this. Here's the scenario:
I have 2 pages full of music where I only need the first bar from page 1 and the last few bars on page 2. I want to combine these 2 areas on one page.
I used the highlighter to apply a white block on areas that I don't need i.e. most of page 1.
I used the Snipping tool to copy the area from page 2. I then changed to the Select tool and tried to paste the snipped area into the white area on page 1. As soon as I clicked to position the Select Tool where I wanted to paste the snipped area, it selected the white block and would not give me an option to Paste.
I then pasted the snipped area on top of bar 1 on page 1, then tried to drag it down into the white area. The snipped area disappeared under the white block.
I then went into Layers and found the snipped area labelled as Image 1 at the bottom of the layer list.
My question is this: With Image 1 at the bottom of the layer list, shouldn't Image 1 appear on top of the white block (shown as a Highlight in the layer list)? It appears other annotations work this way so perhaps it's a limitation of the Snipping process?
Thanks in advance,
Barry
