Keeping track in orchestra score 20 years ago I have used "text expression" to lable each staff in my orchestral score, but after entering about 8 measures, those labels disappear (of course). I also entered the instrument name in Staff Properties. But after working into the piece, how can I look at my 16 staves and know which instrument is which. Quote Selected

Re: Keeping track in orchestra score Reply #2 – 20 years ago Yeah... and I've been hitting F2 for years, to see the name. While it was there, right under my nose, but lurking in the corner! Quote Selected
Re: Keeping track in orchestra score Reply #3 – 20 years ago Funny you should say that, Rob. Today at work, one of my staff showed me a trick in Excel that I had no idea existed - but I've been using Excel extensively for many years. Quote Selected
