My question: I have a blank page inserted into a part to make page turning easier.  I want to put a few words on that blank page to show that it is intentionally left blank.  I can't use an expression, because there are no measures to attach it to.  If I use a text box, I have to attach to a page, not a measure, since there are no measures on the page.  Then it appears on every part and the score, and I need to go to all the other parts and the score and change it to hide, and it looks horrible even though I know it won't print.  Seems like there MUST be an easier way to do this!

Also, the search feature in the community seems to be set on "find matches that fit ANY word in the search box".  This makes it very difficult to find anything.  I scrolled through the first hundred matches or so; sorry if this has been answered in the past.

Instead of hiding the text block I would

- zoom out to a lower view percentage,

- in the score, drag the text block outside the right edge of the page (the text block will also move out in all the parts),

- in the part, drag the text block back onto the page (the text block will move, in that part only).

Thank you!  That's a better solution than I have come up with.

As a Future Finale Feature, still seems reasonable to put a bit of text on a single page only.  When would you ever want text to appear on page 4 of everything?  It would never come out right across all parts and score.
