If you need to transpose by two octaves you will need both methods.

General Discussion / Re: Trasposition
When you are on the staff to be tranposed enter Alt/T then T again (or from the Tools menu select Transpose). Select the number of semitones to be transposed up or down. If you are actually changing the key, leave the "Update staff playback transposition" unchecked.
Playback transposition is only used for instruments which don't play at concert pitch. If you wrote for a Bb clarinet in concert pitch, you would transpose it up two semitones but leave the box checked.

General Discussion / Re: Measure Number cannot shown
When printing parts it is sometimes helpful to create a "tempo" staff which will be layered with the part currently being printed. It would contain hidden bar lines and rests, but all tempos, tempo variences, rehearsal letters, and frequently referred to measure numbers would be on this staff. As Robert said, the Boxmarks font is quite useful for this. See also https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=2316.

General Discussion / Re: sustain trill
BTW, you can make your trills look better than just trl with "tr~~~~~~~~". Better yet, use the Boxmarks or Boxmark2 fonts from here.

General Discussion / Re: NWC 2004?
When printing parts, either a style of "Standard" or, if appropriate for that instrument, upper or lower "Grand Staff" should be the only styles in use.

General Discussion / Re: Noteworthy file specs
The groups I sing in have a number of members who download (and often pay for) the NWC Composer and learn how to control part volume, instrument, and/or stereo pan to highlight their own part; then save their changes (registered users only).

General Discussion / Re: What is a Tenor Clef?
As a violinist, 8va can make life messy. Unlike a keyboard, every octave is not like every other. I would associate the 4th line on the treble staff with one octave above the D string or 3rd finger in 1st position on the A--not 4th finger in 3rd position on the E. If there is a lot going on in the music, I might just ignore the 8va indication.

General Discussion / Re: A few things...
8va You can do a traditional 8va by inserting a clef where the music goes up, select it, cntl/E and then select octave shift. After changing that click on visibility and choose Never. You will have to insert your 8va------------------ as ordinary text above the shifted notes. When you return to normal, insert an unshifted clef and hide it as above.
Layering Two things (at least <g>) are necessary for layering to work. With the "top" staff highlighted, press F2 and pick the "Visual" tab and check on "Layer with next staff". Once you click OK on that go to Page Setup (open book icon). Under "Contents", check "Allow Layering". If you have notes or accidentals which overlap, you will have to add extra note and/or extra accidental spacing to the note(s) on one of the staves to clear up that problem. (select, then cntl/E again).
Repeats If you can use master repeats instead of local repeats, there will be no 2. I don't know how it can be avoided on local repeats.
Bowings The Scriptorium is your friend. Download, unzip, and install Boxmarks.zip from here and, under page setup and Fonts, insert Boxmarks as a numbered user font. IIRC, t = upbow and v = downbow. To put those symbols on notes you will have to insert text (a "t" or "v") and choose that user font.
Once again, welcome.

General Discussion / Re: Hidden staff(?) and locked(?) volume
While you can also change the instrument to something which would really stand out, I would not suggest this when the user can't change what you provided.

General Discussion / Re: Tuplets
The "7" will take some space on your screen, i.e., some extra space will appear where you inserted it but that will practically disappear in a print preview or a real print.
If that doesn't work, feel free to send me your file.

General Discussion / Re: How to disable dynamics per staff
Another way, possibly simpler would be to search for the "pp" (or any other )dynamic, select it, copy it to the clipboard, cntl/F then paste it into the expression. Where ever you find a colon ":" replace what you find after it with an asterisk "*" (Style and possibly staff position should be enough unless something else was overridden when the dynamic was created.) After you find the first one, alternate hitting the Delete key and the F3 key (search next) until you reach the end of the staff. Don't save this file if you ever want to see those dynamics again.

General Discussion / Re: Tempo marking - NWC and generic
An ordinary tempo marking would need to be inserted at about the same point, but you can hide it my changing its visibility tab.
