Re: partcombine for more than two parts?

[Niki Pantelias]

  Aha!  I thought I had tried that, but I had not explicitly specified the 
voice context for the individual parts...  so I added that and it is much 
better now.  Thanks, Jeremy!

  One thing I do notice is that I get multiple dynamic markings on the 
staff with the combined voices.  But since I'm the only one who will see 
the score, I can live with that.

  thanks,
