Hello,
I would like to do a Chord score for a band.
I use the “Remove Rests” function and the bar collapsed.
I live in Japan and it’s common to write scores like this for a band.
Before removing rest
After removing rest
Here is the kind of result I want
Select the rests, and in the bottom panel, Common Properties, Color, set the Alpha channel to 0 (transparency).
Thank you for your reply,
but this technique is very time-consuming.
No it’s not, sorry. Just select them all and do it in one shot.
Select all / Filter / Rests
then, bottom panel, Common Properties / Color, set the Alpha channel to 0 (transparency).
is fast 
Don’t forget to export in Color 
You could also combine that with using the layout option to hide bar rests in empty bars, which doesn’t impact note spacing.
Once again exactly what I need 
Thank you
I think you can also shrink the size to 1% before setting the alpha channel or transparency to avoid unpleasant artefacts
Marc, I don’t think transparency results in artifacts, regardless of size. At least I haven’t found that.
It was reported not long ago in the forum, IIRC. And Daniel advised that reducing size would help
