With what sounds like a remarkable amount of work doing it the other way it would seem churlish to say no. But actually I got confused with the Manual Auto Append options being under 1 button anyway, so go for it
Thanks

It occurred to me that it would be possible to create a single PDF
with
several typesets in it (e.g. the Default Score Layout followed by
individual parts).
So now in the Print View the button that controls print out now
offers
"Append" as well as Continuous/Manual typesetting.

With Append on subsequent typesets will appear below the ones already
made.
I propose dropping this feature (it hasn't been released yet) as
everything it offers can be done with the new Export Book of Layouts
command (apart from direct printing, which could be done if really
wanted), and it doesn't cause the user consternation by failing to
honor the user's score size settings for the various layouts. It
complicates the Print View - someone will accidentally turn appending
on and then be baffled at the output.

If anyone has any objection please say,

The only limitation I have noticed so far is that you can't use the

Command: Set Total Number of Pages
Forces the score to be typeset onto the number of pages you choose.
Location: Object Menu ▶ Score ▶ Typesetter ▶ Print Layout
Internal Name: SetPageCount

command for part of the output - it applies to the whole of the
typeset.

This will be built overnight and needs testing!
