Measure numbers, 1st measure offset, time signature, rests
Hi, I'm Jay and I've just got started with MuseScore. My need is simple: I need empty staff paper that I can write notes on and add chord symbols above. Just notes and chords. So question 1 is: How do I get rid of measure numbers?
Question 2 is: how do I make the first staff line up with the rest of the staves instead of being indented?
Question 3: How do I get rid of the time signature?
Question 4: How do I enter rests? I don't see them anywhere.
So, no measure numbers, no offset first staff and no time signature, just a blank page of staff paper, and access to rests.
Thanks all.

Exploring the application and searching the handbook will save yourself some time from submitting questions and relying on wait-time for others to reply ;)

My Edit dropdown doesn't have a preferences option. I'm still struggling to work out a way to enter a rest without having to go through a needlessly complicated procedure. Should be able to just click on a note and put it in the measure, click on a rest and put it in the measure, and so on. But there are no rests to click on. Weird.
I'll get used to it eventually, but I'll most likely need to submit questions from time to time.

In you're on MacOS, and in MuseScore 4.x, the Preference menu is
MuseScore Studio>Preferences
Edit>Preferences is for Windows and perhaps other operating systems
