Adding glissandi to rests
I have a piece of music I am transferring from a paper score to Muse Score so that I can print the individual parts for my brass band.
In one section there is a glissando to a rest. Here it says glissandi have to be placed from a start note to an end note.
How do I write the notation so that the players know to drop off of their notes over a whole beat?
I hope this makes sense.

Maybe put in a hidden note, and mute it. A grace note might work, so you don’t need to fool with other voices. But I don’t understand it. How do they know where to stop the gliss, even though they see when?

You could also use a "slide out down" from the Arpeggios palette. Apply it to the note before the rest.

Since the line is wave-shaped, I'd rather say “Rough fall, medium”, which is not available in the Arpeggios palette, but in the Symbols palette (menu View / Master Palette, type 'rough' in the search area).
See:
And in Special characters / Musical symbols / Brass techniques
In the handbook: https://musescore.org/en/handbook/4/entering-and-editing-text#special-c…
Then drag the fall into your score. From there, press and hold ctrl+shift then select the fall and drag it into a palette so that you always have it. Enter it in your score as needed like any other palette item. except you will need to position it each time.
