Hello,
I can’t seem to find a way to hide scoops in a cue:
Unchecking “Show Ornaments” in the bottom panel doesn’t seem to hide jazz ornaments.
Am I missing something?

It looks like that is correct, unless I am missing something too.
What I often do when I need to manipulate the appearance of cues is to create another player and notate the cued passage the way I want it to appear in the actual cue. This extra player will be hidden in the finished result but the cues will still work. Sometimes I need to change octaves, flip slurs, stems, positions of ornaments, etc., so that the cue ends up looking the way I want. In your situation I would simply notate the source to not include the scoop. Also, make sure you change Properties > Cues > Start text to “Tpt. 1”, as the text which automatically appears is the name of the cued player, which I usually just call “Cues”.
Yeah I often do the same thing, but it seems like it might be a bug that the “show ornaments” doesn’t affect these scoops.
Although they are both created via the Shift+O popover, Dorico doesn’t treat jazz articulations in the same way as ornaments; ornaments are separate items that can exist independently of notes, whereas jazz articulations exist as properties of the notes themselves. It would be possible for us to add an extra engraving options and corresponding property for this in future, but it would make sense for it to be separate from the existing pair for ornaments.
That would be really nice if that happened - the workaround of having to create another hidden staff specifically for the cue feels a bit unnecessary when this is the only issue doing it the regular way.
