Filter Enabled Tracks & playing in parts w/ multi part editing

I'm wondering if there is a way to add to the scoring tools filter "show enabled tracks". I do have it set as a keyboard shortcut.

My recent workflow:

Let's say the majority of my tracks in template are disabled.

I write a piano sketch using a piano track. I know I'm going to then orchestrate it with a few select instruments from my strings, ww, brass folder, etc. So after sketching out the piano arrangement I go ahead and enable those tracks I want to use.

My end goal: I want to be able to see the piano sketch in the piano roll consistently so I can play in the parts in the various instruments, and I want to avoid scrolling as much as possible, so am really trying to master these filter/ track tag/viz features.

I would love to hear others workflow to keep piano sketch visible as much as possible when playing in parts. To my knowledge I need to have an event in the track before I start playing in the phrase if I want to use the excellent multi-part editing/colorize feature. Is that accurate? I'm also not clear on what "toggle exclusive editing" is.

Am wondering if there is a more efficient way I could be doing this that I'm not considering. Would love to hear others workflows.

It's late here and I'm a bit tired -- hope the above makes sense!

Thanks!
