Hi folks,

I have run upon a need I haven't encountered before even if it probably
isn't something extremely uncommon...

I have a rubato part of a vocal chart, in which some wind instruments
should follow the voice by playing long notes. To be able to change note at
the right time (if a conductor isn't available or capable), I would like to
let the wind players be able to see the vocal part in this section so they
understand where the vocalist is, and this extra information needs to be in
the part and together with their "own" staff.

I havent't tested yet but when thinking about it I can only see one obvious
solution and that would be to add an extra staff for each wind player, add
this to the respective parts and copy the vocal part to these for this
section. Then use the functionality to only show non-empty staves in the
part (can't remember the name of this feature but I have used it earlier in
some piano parts).

Perhaps this would do it.

But is there a more clever way? The best would of course be something more
sophisticated so that if I change something in the vocal part it should
change in all parts showing it as well.

Please share your experience and great knowledge.

Thanks
/D
