Hello,  I am incorporating an entire script to my score, assigning text blocks to specific measures.  

If I want the text to be included in every single one of my individual parts, that can prove to be a challenge, because text blocks need to be attached to a specific measure AND part.  

I created a staff that is dedicated to having text blocks assigned to it, but it's proving to have its own challenges.  Has anyone else done something similar to this, and have any tricks up their sleeve?

Most folks who try something like this export their music files as images and incorporate them into a desktop publishing program that can do better justice to their script and formatting needs.

 

If you find a trick for managing the reverse, please share it here, as you are likely not the only person who would be interested.

Without seeing your file, I might be wrong, but if I had to do this, instead of using text blocks I would use expressions. I'd create an expression category just for the text instructions and use a score list which only shows them on the score on one or two staves, but shows on all parts. There's no perfect solution for this, but I find using text blocks for this type of use is awkward to use.
