I'm editing an early 19th Century concerted choral work, and about midway thru the piece there is a change of tempo on the 4th beat of a measure (quarter note on beat one, quarter rest on beat two, quarter rest of beat three with a fermata, followed by a thin double bar, then a quarter note on the fourth beat which initiates the new allegro tempo and a fugue).
Is there some command in Finale Mac 3k that will allow me to do this, or do I have to create two separate measures out of the one in 4/4 time and then hide the time signature in the second measure of 1/4?
You don't need to hide any time signatures, if you specify for the two measures that you want the time signature to be 3/4 display as 4/4 and 1/4 display as 4/4, which is the way I sometimes do this, particularly if measure number values don't matter, and I need the 1/4 measure as the target for a repeat.
However, if measure numbers matter, and I don't need the target, I have also used the shape designer to create a shape expression which looks just like a double bar line, and use that, instead.
