Hey all, here's one! I'm on 8.4.2

My current project requires a logo (graphic) on the first page of each part. I've managed to make it work mostly, but because a graphic seems to need to be attached to a note or rest, inserting a graphic onto a tacet sheet breaks the tacet sheet up into a mess of multi-rests.

I've managed a few times to insert the graphic then quickly export a pdf, but it will stay as a tacet sheet only briefly, and this process is tedious and precarious. Any major adjustments to the graphic's position, or really any alteration to the page whatsoever blows the whole thing up into multi-rests (because it sees an object on the staff), even navigating away from that part etc., it won't stay a tacet sheet.

Is there any way around this? Seems silly that one can't just drop a graphic wherever they need.

Please help! I have a lot to turn out and this is slowing me down big time! :cry: :cry: :cry:

I've seen an article about how to do this, It is to do with placing a graphic on a cover page in the place where you want it to appear on the part. It should be attached to a title on blank page text object. When you have placed the logo to your satisfaction, delete the text. The graphic will now appear on all parts.
