When I generate parts from a full score, the title of the composition appears in a text block from page 2 onwards; I would prefer the instrument to appear in the upper center text block instead. How can I create this text block to link with the names from the ScoreManager list, without the border that appears on the title page?

I'm not sure which border you're referring to, but to change from the title to the part name, go to the text tool, right-click on the title, and pick Edit Text. Select all, delete it, then use the Text menu, Inserts, Score/Part name.

Thank you, good advice but doesn't solve the problem of the border on the first page which I don't want on any other page. How do I use the score/part name without the border on subsequent pages (see screenshot of the enclosure [standard frame] I am talking about).[img][

Select the text block in the Text tool, then Text/Standard Frame, uncheck "Show Border."
