Thanks you Christopher. My rationale is I
have a two bar bolero rhythm going on and the melodic cue is merely to advise
the drummer as to where he is up to- not for him to ever play the cue.
Thanks for info!

I have no prob putting a cue line
over a drum part, but how do I do it over staff style measure repeats.
I don't actually suggest this, as the one-bar repeat means to literally play
the previous bar exactly, whereas you are contradicting that by putting cues in
the measure (assuming you mean the drummer to play them!) But this is how:
1) To make
Slash Notation, Rhythmic Notation, and One and Two-bar Repeat staff styles show
notes in other layers (essential for drum parts!)
Select the Staff Tool
(looks like a treble clef)
Staff Menu>Define Staff Styles
Beside “Available Styles” select “Slash Notation”
Directly below that about two inches is a check box and “Alternate
Notation.” Click on the “Select” button just below that.
In the “Alternate Notation” dialogue box at the bottom, there are
four options available; “Show Items Attached to Notes, Show Notes in
Other Layers, Show Items Attached to Notes in Other Layers, and Add Dots to
Slashes in Compound Meters.” ALL of them should be checked.
Click OK
Beside “Available Styles” select “Rhythmic Notation”
(or One bar repeat, or Two bar repeats)
Click on the “Select” button just below “Alternate
Notation” again
In the “Alternate Notation” dialogue box at the bottom, there are
four options available; “Show Items Attached to Notes, Show Notes in
Other Layers, Show Items Attached to Notes in Other Layers, and Stems up in
Rhythmic Notation”. Check ONLY the first three; leave the stem direction
alone.
Click OK,
Repeat the above paragraph for other styles as necessary, then click OK in the
Staff Styles dialogue box.
