What follows only will work easily for works/movements with a single
measure number region.
1) Set up two regions, just like each other, but when it says "show
beginning with measure #" put a measure number larger than the movement
has for one of the regions.
2) when working on the score use one region and set it to "show
beginning with measure #2" or whatever you usually use, and set its
position as you want it in the score. Be sure the other region is set
to begin showing at a larger number than exists in the score.
3) when working on the parts, use the other region. Set the "show
beginning with measure #" to a number larger than the last measure in
the piece for the region that you just adjusted for the the score. Set
the region you're reserving for parts to show beginning with measure 2
(or whatever you normally use) and set its position as you want for the
parts.
Nobody can understand why this item is always linked. Nobody, that is,
except the good folks at MM who were forced to get this upgrade out the
door by early August, before they had figured out how to unlink the
measure numbers. Among other things.
I can only begin to imagine the frustration of the programmers who work
so hard to get things right and are told "stop working on that feature,
we're going gold with as it stands right now. We'll make them pay for
the rest of that feature in the next upgrade." How frustrating that
must be for their professional pride!
