Anyone out there having problems with text objects disappearing in parts, in my case instrument changes. Sib transposes the part correctly and the playback switches to the new instrument even if the actual text is gone. Adding a second instrument change in the same bar in the score often reveal the "hidden" one.
If there are multirests nearby, make sure the text is attached before the first bar of the multirest,

Thanks, I will keep that in mind, might be a part of the problem. I did put a box around the text to make it more obvious for the players. I've noticed that Sib treats these boxes slighlty different than a text object. Every now and then I found my boxes floating around on a totally different page.
I'd have to see an actual score that shows the problems to diagnose them, but the text off the page syndrome is usually due to inadvertant dragging or dragging while in panorama mode. Just somethign to watch out for.
