robert, you were suggesting using staff styles... here is the solution i found, is this what you are doing, or do you have something more ingenious?

layer 1 - real rest in default position
layer 2 - displaced rest to avoid collision with cue
layer 4 - cue notes

cue SC style
- alternate (normal) notation applied to layer 1: show items attached to notes; do not show notes or items attached to notes in other layers

cue PT style
- alternate (blank) notation applied to layer 1: do not show items attached to notes; show notes or items attached to notes in other layers

this way you can apply SC in the score to hide all information needed for the cues but keeping the full measure rest, and when you apply PT in the part, because there are conflicts, it wipes out the SC style in the part, leaving only the cue info.

stupid that it requires 3 layers, but it works well i think. i won't need partial cue measures (cues that continue into the measure where the cued instrument enters), but i think it might work there as well, with selective partial measure editing.
