Unless you are proposing putting the entire document into 1/4 and then removing the staff-styles from only those measures which would coincide with where the barlines should be in the varied time signatures?

In a P° and Bsn. score, I have :
P°: [meas. 1: 4/4], [meas. 2: 3/4], [meas. 3: 4/4].
During this time the Bsn. is playing different time signatures :
2/4, 3/4, 3/4, 3/4.
I'd like to have vertical shifted barlines, (not aligned barlines like when you use independant time signature)
So do you think that hiding barlines in Bsn. staff style and adding barlines by hand drawing is the best way to do that?
The way to make unaligned barlines in Finale is to set the meter to the least common multiple of the various meters, then put in the remaining barlines either as smartshapes (my preference) or as expressions.
Eh? Perhaps I'm missing something, but why not simply make one staff style that hides all barlines and apply it to the entire document, then remove it selectively from the measures where you want the barlines to show. Isn't that a lot easier and cleaner than drawing them in with smart shapes?
