Greetings. I have an orchestral score to which I'd like to add an English Horn (Cor Anglais). I don't see any option under the Add Menu that ill let me do this. Thanks in advance.

If you want the oboist to change instruments there is no need to add a separate staff, Just add an instrument change text to the oboe staff from the [Add]>[Text] menu. This will take care of the transposition for the cor {in F). But don't use the Change Instrument text from the text pallet. It is bugged and doesn't work properly for transposing instruments.
