Did you know that when you use the text tool in the score page to create text, that the text is represented in the event list as a META event. Meta events can be used to do all sorts of things, you can assign every available parameter in Logic to a META event.

I want to create an indentation in the first staff of a song.
I haven't found a tool for this. It seems that Logic Pro doesn't allow you to adjust the position of each staff individually.
However, it creates this empty space at the beginning of the song to indicate the instrument name, as it appears in the Arrangement window.
So I created this indentation by typing a series of spaces in place of the instrument name.
I don't find this particularly elegant or precise.
Similarly, I needed to write two short pieces on the same page, such as a recitative and an aria in an opera, or in a suite.
Obviously, for Logic Pro, these are all one and the same song.
Again, I couldn't figure out how to create an empty space between the two pieces.
To get around this, I created a staff style with a large space at the bottom, which I applied only to the last staff of the first song.
However, it seems that Logic Pro accepts a hidden measure as a space at the beginning of a staff within a song.
Indeed, placing a hidden measure at the very beginning causes a recalculation that places the next measure at the far left. Therefore, this cannot be a solution to create this indentation.
Do you know of another way to achieve this?
