Hey Aaron,
Standard B'way practice is to number EVERY measure, usually below the
staff, aligned (more or less) with the left barline. Sometimes the
cut is indicated with a small arrow next to the first post-cut
measure, i.e.:
| 6 | 7 | 8 -> | 22 | 23 |
The arrow would be (basically) right-aligned with the right barline
of the measure before the cut.
Cheers,
- Darcy

Hi all,
I've got another style question for the list. I'm preparing a
version of piece with three or four substantial cuts. Because these
cuts will never be opened, I'm actually removing the cut measures
from my Finale file -- but I'm creating new measure regions so that
the measure numbers in the new score always correspond to the same
measures in the original uncut score.
My parts all have measure numbers at the beginning of each system,
on top of the staff. Is there a standard way for indicating the
first (new) measure number after a cut? In other words, if I've cut
out mm.10-35, I want to make sure that there's a measure number on
bar 36 so that someone counting from the beginning of the system
(bar 8, say) doesn't get screwed up. I was thinking of putting
these numbers on top of the staff, in parens or brackets; existing
rehearsal numbers are on top of the staff, in a square enclosure.
Thanks,
Aaron.
