Unless I’m mistaken, I don’t think there is an option to hide the “player numbers” from the staff label, but does anyone have a usable workaround to achieve this?
Working on a choir piece and the composer wants the voices marked without numbers, except in divisi cases where the vocies are split into two staves.
Are those two separate Players, or Divisi?
If you labelled each staff individually, rather than “in the middle”, then you should be able to get rid of the numbers by adding the number to the full name (thus creating “different” names.)
Thanks, but not what I’m looking for.
I’m trying to have each voice on a single staff, without any number, when singing unisono or divisi on the same staff.
When divided on two staves I would like to have the short name centered between the staves and the numbers 1 and 2 (or I. and II.) on respective staves
You can easily set Divisi staves not to show the numbers, if that’s what you want.
Yes, just use section players (one per voice part, SATB) that you can then divide as needed.
I’m having trouble with what I think is a similar situation. I have a score where I want three vocal staves with no staff labels and an accompanying instrument (guitar) with staff labels. One vocal staff is a regular treble clef, and two are transposing treble clefs (for tenors). When I delete the instrument names from the players, numerals show up in their place and I can’t seem to remove them, even when I deselect the “show Divisi section numbers” in Layout Options. This is true whether I use single players OR section players (but when I use section players, I get Roman numerals!).
Is there a way to get those numbers to disappear?
Thanks!
It seems the numbers appear when the names are equal.
If you change the names, and delete the name of voice 1, make the name of voice 2 one space, and voice 3 two spaces, nothing is shown
Brilliant, thank you @TonH!
You could also try removing their player names (rather than the instrument names), provided you don’t use their player names anywhere else, then set these players to show player names instead of instrument names in staff labels.
I need 2 pianos in the score - one for the full band version, and another for a score reduction for a piano/vocal version. The second piano insists on showing Piano 2 in its Staff Label, in its own Piano Vocal layout. This staff does not show in the Score. How do I hide the “2”?
I’m using one piano part in the full score, and the other in the Piano Vocal Layout.
You could rename one of the Pianos.
Instrument, or Player?
Whichever you use to label staves or layouts.
You could also just add the rehearsal Piano to its own (new) Group by right-clicking on the Player card in Setup mode.
