Making parts and voices invisible
SmartScore allows you to create and manage "optimized" systems (systems that expand and collapse when parts are not played). Part visibility (or "hiding" a part from one or more systems) is managed either from the Staff Properties dialog or directly from the System Manager.
How it works …
1
Open the System Manager by holding down + , by clicking on the System Manager button in the Tools tab or by going to .2
Uncheck the part you wish to make "invisible".3
In the Apply section of the dialog, check Visibility.4
In the Apply to section, make a selection from the pull-down menu. Choose the range of the score you want the part to be hidden:
System = Remove only from the active system
System + = Remove from active system and all subsequent systems
Score / Part = Remove only from the current Score Part
All = Entirely remove from the score

Select Apply to apply your choices to the current document. Select Apply to New to apply your choices to a new SmartScore document leaving the original document unchanged.6
Push OK to return to the score.Animation (0:27) - Making parts and voices invisible (System Manager)
