Re. the bar numbers in parts, in the score I have bold condensed centred numbers on the bottom staff of the score, for every bar (conductors LOVE this). This is in addition to the 'normal' ones on the left hand side of the staff.
But obviously not in the parts, so I select the Measure tool, drag enclose all the bold condensed centred numbers and then drag them way past the bottom of the page in the part. They are still there but off the page. It doesn't take that long, though by the time you're at Vln 1 in an long orchestral piece it is an F-ing drag.

Here's what I do (courtesy of jef chipewa!) >> >> Use two different measure number regions, region 1 for the parts and >> region 2 for the score. When you print the parts, set the range of region 1 >> to be 1 to 999 and the range of region 2 to be 999 to 999.
