How To Edit Parts and Not Score
Moderators: Peter Thomsen, miker
Hey all,
I'm trying to edit my parts without editing the score. No matter what I do (add a text box, move a dynamic marking, etc), it moves it in the score too. The colour changes to yellow (which I thought indicated that it only affected the part and not the score), and yet it emulates everything I do in the score. Any suggestions? I'm on 2014.5 on Mac. Thanks!

Moving a dynamic should yield different results between Score and Part. As far as a text block, is it Page attached or Measure attached?

It does not yield a different result. And whether it is page or measure attached with the textbox, it still displays it on the score. See image attached. Thanks!

It might show faintly, but it doesn't print. You can change the amount of "fade" that hidden items show so you see nothing. If it really bothers you, just drag it off the page in the score.

Just tested this and turned into pdf. It doesn't show on the score, but it also doesn't show in the part. They are linked somehow and I can't figure out why. Everything is linked, no matter what I do in the part it edits the score as well.
