Description

It takes a lot of steps to create cue notes in muse score:

  1. select range
  2. copy selected range
  3. select destination
  4. paste
  5. exchange voice 1-2
  6. select note
  7. add text
  8. re-select range
  9. filter out voice 1
  10. hide
  11. switch to part
  12. re-select range
  13. make small
  14. uncheck "play"
  15. switch back to score
  16. disable selection filter

It would be extremely helpful to get a tool or plugin to
"Past as Cue notes".

PS: The kings-way would probably be to select a range of rests within part A,
mark it as "cue-range" and then select part B as a source for it. This way
cue notes could become dynamic like in Dorico, where changing
the source material updates the cue notes...
