Step 2 of the old How to: https://musescore.org/en/node/93581
Hold the mouse in the fields to match the options-
Or add as text and put it in position

I still don't get it.
I interpret "Hold down mouse" as meaning to click in the box - the options disappear.
If I just place the cursor there, the options appear.
What I want to achieve is a number in the top right corner representing its number in the book.
I go to Header in General style. I place the number in the top right corner.
I go to Text style. There I put a box around the number and am able to manipulate the position so that it is the right size and in the right place.
Terrific.
However, I cannot understand how to have that number appear ONLY on the first page.
Help???
I have spent so much time just getting that far.

In the previous conversation (link above) it is said: 'it is not possible'
Then try a workaround:
Click on the first note (or rest) -> Ctrl + T to add the text;
Click on text-> From Inspector choose the type of text;
Drag in position.
It might work?
