BIAB software has a "Copy From" feature that allows you to copy the melody, solo, song text, settings, and the chords for one place to another. But not anything to defined Tag section after last verse.
I've used BIAB automatic feature called "tag". Tag is defined as follows:
Repeats/Codas/1st-2nd Endings ... --> Tag Ending --> Tag Exists [x] Tag After Jump # Tag Begin At Bar # Tag Ends After Bar #
The song structure is as follows: 1) Intro 2) Verses x3 3) Outro (tag)
When the melody is entered, I can copy it to all the verses.
But, it seems to me that any part of the melody can not be copied to the end tag. End "tag" is isolated and the melody needs to be manually added.
Am I right?
I.e "Copy from" feature needs a way to copy the melody to tag after last verse also.

You may need to use Edit-Unfold Song and THEN use copy from-to?

Hi, I thought I tried everything and was as frustrated as all of you, people. But no longer.
Moreover, the solution is so simple that I just can’t believe how stupid I was.
If you have 2 choruses and a tag that is the same as your intro or the first chorus, then you can copy the melody as such: choose copy from...to...— select the bars you want to copy (say: From 5 for the duration of 16 bars), —- copy to: bar number of your tag, but specify chorus number 2!
This will do the trick.
Same if you have three choruses and end with a tag, then enter copy to bar number of start of the tag and chorus number 3!
So easy, and yet so stupid,
Hope you enjoy this little solution

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
