General Discussion / Re: Selectively suppressing staves when printing
I know this is one of those things that has been discussed for... well, looks like at least 10 years, but with the new objects tools, is there any way to, for example, in a vocal score where the piano comes in before the voice, to hide the vocal line for the first few printed staves? It's literally the only thing keeping me from getting near-perfect prints of my music.

Hi Adam,
Haven't posted on this forum before but have been using nwc for decades myself. Hope I've interpreted your question correctly.
I just select the section for which I don't want any lyrics, then right click and go to Properties ... Notation properties, OR go to Edit on the main menu and then Properties. Either way, there is a heading that says "Lyric syllable". If you drop that down it will give you the option of "Default" (which I've always taken to mean "Yes"), "Always", which presumably overrides every other command, or Ta da! "Never" - so your lyrics will skip that section of notes or whatever, and hopefully start where they are supposed to.
Cheers
Sherry
