Hi,
I’m having trouble to get a uniform display of instrument labels. I would like to create a (divided) 1st. violin part (named: Violin I), consisting of 2 staves, and the same for a 2nd. violin part (named: Violin II. In the way as the Viola and Cello parts in both examples below, with the instrument names places between the staves.
However, when I name the first two staves ‘Violin I’ (via SetUp - Edit names) and the next two staves ‘Violin II’, I get this result:
How can I have the instrument label ‘Violin I’ appear between the first two staves (numbered 1 and 2) and the instrument label ‘Violin II’ between the third and fourth stave (also numbered 1 and 2), just like the Viola and Cello part?
@Lillie_Harris : Thanks for your reply. When I add 4 Violin parts as ‘Section Players’ instead of ‘Single Players’, I get the same result as above, only now all Roman numbers I and II:
No need to add four section players. Add two section players for Violin I and Violin II, and use the Divisi feature I linked an introduction to to split those two section players onto more staves.
When I wrote
I meant, a section player per string section: Violin I, Violin II, Viola, Violoncello, Contrabass. The way Dorico does automatically in orchestral project templates.
@Lillie_Harris : I cheered a bit too soon, there is one more thing: The section player-divisi action worked, but now I see numbers 1 and 2 above all section staves and can’t see a way to either remove these numbers or make them invisible:
