Hi,
In Engrave mode, one can ask a text object to cover the background.
This works for lines and notes, but not for rests. To make rests disappear from the background, one has to use one of the available methods (change color, Remove Rests command…).
Rests are part of the background, so I would find logical they are covered as well.

If an instance of staff text has the Erase background property set, only staff lines and barlines underneath the text will be erased. However, if the staff text uses a paragraph style with the background color set to white, other objects underneath the text will also be erased, including rests.
I see. I need a workaround for this workaround!
