How to manually hide/show empty staves?

• Nov 12, 2024 - 08:57

I'm notating a choral piece and for the most part, hiding empty staves is what I want. I don't need three empty staves during the piano intro/interlude, and more importantly I don't need to split my vocal line into three staves for most of the piece, save for a small section in the middle. But I would like to lead into that section with empty staves until each part enters, rather than only showing one at a time. Is there a way to keep some empty staves visible while hiding all the others? I've been trawling through the musescore forums but so far I haven't found a solid fix. Thanks!

Adding staff text fixed the empty stave problem (yay!) but I don't see an option to edit text color/transparency in the properties window. And setting text to invisible hides the staves again :(

Edit: I figured it out, had to go to properties > show more > text style, then set the style to one of the user styles, then go to format > style > text styles, and change the color of the same user style to white. Still can't mess with opacity but this works fine lmao
Thanks for the help! Much appreciated
