The first instance worked fine because you copies ALL of your choir 1 system (including all layers) to choir 2 for the cues. Since all layers except layer 1 were empty, this produced the desired effect.
When you subsequently tried the same thing from choir 2 to choir 1, you NOW had the cues from choir 1 in layer 4 of choir 2, and THOSE were turned into cues as well.
Solution 1: There isn't an easy solution, because even with the Show Active Layer Only, this bug appears. For the addition of Choir 2 cues to choir 1, you can't do the entire score in a single go, but rather you have to use mass mover to highlight ONLY those measures, section by section, where you want to put choir 2 cues in choir 1 staves.
The CAUSE: it appears that when the first set of cues is created, the default layer 1 empty measures which appear to have whole rests but really don't are turned into REAL whole rests, and these are read by the program as being part of what you want cues for.
Solution 2: use speedy entry or simple entry to go through and delete all these newly created "real" whole rests before creating the second set of cues.
What a pain, and I plan to submit this as a bug to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I urge everybody who wants to use this plug-in to submit a bug-report as well.

HI folks,
I am writing a piece involving two antipohanal brass choirs which do not play at the same time and wished to add choir 2 cue notes to the choir 1 parts and vice versa.
When I used the "add cue notes" plugin to add choir 1 notes as cues to choir 2, all went well - the cue notes were added to later 4 and the bars in which choir 2 were playing were unaffected.
However, when I used exactly the same process to add the choir 2 notes to the choir 1 parts, all the bars in which choir were playing were filled with rests which obscured the real notes.
My questions:
1. Why did it work okay first time but not second - What have I done wrong? 2. How can I get rid of the rests added to the chor 1 parts?
3. If I can't get rid of the rests, how do I get rid of the layer 4 cues?
Thanks,
All the best,
Lawrence
