I'm working from F07, so you're screens may be different, but I'm wondering if you made changes to staff assignments in the instruments window. On my system, there is a window drop down from the menu bar which has a choice for the instruments window. That window has two choices for view.

It's very simple: If you have dedicated a layer for your cues, go to the instrument list and MUTE that layer or send it to a silent/unused midi channel. On Nov 4, 2009, at 11:18 AM, Dean M. Estabrook wrote: Hmm, David ... I've tried the two methods you suggested, and so far have
