Creating Cue notes on a lead sheet that only has 1 stave require a lot of steps, the resize tool is a click away and its great but only works one note at a time. Why not allow to select the a whole bar of eights notes that needs to be reduced at once? Anything that can be automated should be. Is there any way to change the size of several notes at once? using resize and not creating cue notes.
See example attached of a leadsheet with the vocal cue. Thanks!

There are plugins for this. JW Change can do mass resize. Also, Utilities/Change/Note Size.

Utilities / change / Note Size is great, you can select normally before applying. That is exactly what I was looking for thanks.
