You use Hide and Collapse where before you would have optimized out a staff. It won't necessarily coincide with the cue. There is a different staff style you use to hide the cue when you want to keep the staff in the score. It's one of the Alternate Notation options: Blank Notation with rests.
The issues are all pretty well addressed by MM, except for lacking unlinkable Special Tools edits. On Thu, Jan 3, 2013 at 11:34 AM, J D Thomas <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks Robert.
