Use case: Lead sheet with one player playing a fretted instrument and voice.
Input instrument single-note parts on fretted instrument and vocal melody in Galley View. They do not overlap, and show on one staff with instrument changes in PageView.
Include tablature for fretted instruments, and hidden empty staves in Layout options.
All looks good: Tablature shows under the instrument parts, and disappears for vocal melody parts.
Until…
… chord symbols are included. These apply to the fretted instrument, which causes tablature to appear, even when there are no single-note parts.
I’m sorry if I’m missing the instructions, but can I have chord symbols appear above lyrics and still have tablature appear for single-note parts and disappear for vocal parts?

Also: for instrument break sections, is there a way to have chord symbols apply to a slash region of the vocal part so that chord symbols show without tablature?
