I'm getting better at inserting rhythm cues over my drums parts, but I have one problem I can't seem to resolve myself. When I use the Utilities - Change note heads I want the note heads to be small slashes. However, when I go back to the score there are no note heads, only stems. What am I missing?

As always, thanks for your help!

Without seeing your file, it is hard to know, as we are not sure about the details of your setup.

Can you post a sample?

I just sent a one measure sample where I tried to get my rhythm cues displayed as a small slash and, again, no heads.

Thanks!

That utility picks a slot from the Maestro font, not the Maestro Percussion font, and that slot is blank. In percussion, use the Rhythmic Cue item instead of picking just any note. That already uses the slash. I changed your note to the Rhythmic Cue note in my revised file. The default file position is higher. I modified it in the Percussion Layout you are using to put it on the top space as you had yours.
