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
> Press a keyboard shortcut: Windows: Ctrl + T; Mac: + T.

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