To break a multimeasure rest
When you create parts, Finale groups all
empty measures into multimeasure rests. You can now break one or more
multimeasure rests into separate measures. For example, you might prefer
that measures are written out if less than four consecutive measures are
empty, or you might want to break a single multimeasure rest into two
or more rests.
- Choose the Selection
Tool
.
- Select the multimeasure rest to break. To break
more than one multimeasure rest, select a region that contains the rests.
(Remember that you must be in Page View to do this.)
- From the Edit menu, chose Multimeasure Rests > Break, or control-click
on the multimeasure rest and choose Multimeasure Rests > Remove. Finale
breaks the multimeasure rests in the selected region into separate measures
of rests.
- Choose Update Layout from the Utilities menu to
ensure that Finale is displaying the current layout of the score.
