- Lock the first coda bar (or the first two bars, or whatever you need) in a system of its own. The bars are now too long, but you'll change that.
- In Page Layout tool, remove the check mark by "Avoid Margin Collisions" in the Page Layout menu.
- Make the two systems shorter by moving (respectively) their right and left margins.
- Drag the system where the coda begins up to the same level as the other system.

Hello list, happy new year the situation: standard pop music arrangement for two violins with a D.S. al Coda.the problem: if you have the first coda bar together with the last bars before the D.S. in one system, one has to insert an extra measure with invisible staffstyle selected. so far no problem. due to standards in music publications for these special coda situation you will also have to add brackets, key signatures and clefs in the first coda bar. How can this be done the most easily? I know how to do it in Finale (2003 PC by the way) but my way seems to be really complicated with at least 10 different steps and clicks, including adding another measure and optimizing to have a group bracket shown... Do i miss an easy feature in Finale, or is it really that complicated? Anyone knowing an easy way? Good idea for a plugin?
