To create cue notes on a full-size staff

  1. Enter the music at normal size.  
  2. Select the layer your cue notes are in from the Select Layer submenu View menu.  
  3. From the Document menu, choose Show Active Layer Only.
  4. Click the Selection Tool image\Selection_Tool.gif and select a region. See Selecting music for some region-selecting shortcuts. You can select as little as one note, or as much as an entire piece.
  5. From the Utilities menu, choose Change, then Note Size. The Resize Notes dialog box appears.
  6. Indicate how small you want the cue notes to be by typing a number into the number box. This number is expressed as a percentage of normal-size notes, so “50%” would give you notes that are half size; numbers between 50 and 75 generally produce good results.
  7. Click OK (or press enter). To restore the notes, repeat the process but set the notes’ size to 100%.
