Setup mode
Setup mode allows you to set up the fundamental elements of the project: instruments and the players that hold them, flows, layouts, and videos. You can also determine how they interact with each other; for example, by changing the players assigned to layouts.
Player, layout, and instrument names
In Dorico Pro, you can use three different names to refer to the same player in different contexts. This allows you to show relevant information in different places, such as in staff labels and at the top of part layouts.
Renaming players
You can change the player names of players, and reset renamed players to their default names. Player names appear in guide instrument labels in galley view for players holding multiple instruments and can appear in staff labels. Player names also appear in player lists.
Resetting player names
You can reset both full and short player names to their defaults simultaneously. Default player names automatically update when you change the instruments or names of instruments held by the player.

Resetting player names

You can reset both full and short player names to their defaults simultaneously. Default player names automatically update when you change the instruments or names of instruments held by the player.

Procedure

In Setup mode, in the Players panel, select the player whose names you want to reset.
Press Return to open the player name text field.
Click Reset to Default .

Result

Both the full and short names for the corresponding player are reset to their defaults.

Note

This does not affect staff labels that show instrument names, or the name at the top of part layouts if you have already renamed the layout. You can change instrument and layout names separately.
