Very easy. 1) Select the Staff Tool 2) Highlight the measures you want to apply the style to. 3) Choose "Define Staff Styles..." from the Staff Menu 4) Click "New" when the window pops up. 5) Name the Staff Style something appropriate, like "G Transposition." 6) Click the Transposition Tab 7) From the pulldown menu, choose "(G) Up P4, Add 1 Flat" 8) Click OK 9) Apply the new staff style to the measures you selected.
That basically takes care of it. If you want to hide the key signature, you can check or uncheck the appropriate boxes in the staff style you created.
