Title: blank staff (lines only, no notes)
Post by: Roy Summerfield on 2000-09-16 04:00 AM
On page 26 of the Users Guide it says you can hide chosen symbols,so you can print, for example, blank manuscript paper, perhaps, a top staff of music, with the lower staffs lines only, to be worked on in pencil first. But when I follow the instructions, I get nothing, How is it dine?

What do you mean by "I get nothing" in your question? If you hide all of the items in a staff before printing, you will only get staff lines when you print. To hide everything:

1 - Press Home
2 - Pres Shift+End
3 - Press Alt+Enter
4 - Click Visibility
5 - Set "Shown on printed page" to Never
6 - Press OK

Yes - it works! I musthave been doping something wrong.

Something else - it is a pity you can not enter expression symbols like ,"hairpins" (crescendo, decrescendo lines) easily as is possible I think on some other software. I hope this can be added to NWC sometime.
