Just create a 2/16 bar and either: 1) Hide the 2/16 time signature with the Measure tool. 2) Make the 2/16 bar "Use a different time signature for display" (click "More Choices" in the TimeSig dialog) of 6/8.
This will mess up measure numbers a bit since the 2/16 bar will be numbered despite its not-really-a-measure status, but you can define Measure Number Regions in the Measure tool to make numbers display correctly. Hope this helps! -Brad On Mon, 13 Dec 2004 15:54:40 EST, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear Listers, > > I'm sure that this has been dealt with to death before, and for that I > apologize.
