Full measure stacks can also be inserted using the clipboard or by dragging, shifting all subsequent measures to the right in all staves. Rebar music does not apply when inserting stacks because the subsequent music is nudged in full measure increments (so notes cannot be nudged across barlines).

In order to copy and insert a measure stack, the source region must include a stack selection.

To copy and insert stacks

1. Select a measure stack. A measure stack must include all staves and begin and end at a barline. See Selecting music.
2. Press CTRL+C. The stack is loaded to the clipboard.
3. Select a region beginning on a barline on the top staff and press CTRL+I to insert.

To copy a measure stack by dragging:

1. Select a measure stack. A measure stack must include all staves and begin and end at a barline. See Selecting music.
2. While holding down the ALT key, click and drag the source music to position the vertical insertion cursor at a barline on the top staff of the target region. The insertion cursor changes color to green indicating an eligible location to insert as shown in the figure below.
3. Release the mouse button. Finale inserts a copy of the selected music starting at the position of the green line, nudging subsequent measures in the staff (or staves) to the right the duration of the inserted material.
