With Notion, you can hide individual items on staves and can hide entire parts (instruments/staves)

in your score . This is very useful for reducing a score down to a few parts so a printout only has a

solo and piano parts, or to temporarily reduce screen clutter while editing a big score .
Since you are hiding a part, not deleting it, you can always show it whenever you want in the future .
Note: The quickest way to see a single part is to click the name of a part under Score > Dynamic Parts

in the Menu Bar .

1 . To open Score Setup, either:

>

Click the Score Setup button

at the left end of the toolbar, or

when you hover over the

button . When you move your cursor, the button turns to an empty white circle .

4 . Go to other instruments you do not want to see and click their

button .

5 . When finished, close Score Setup . You can press the Esc key, or the

button in the toolbar, or
