Thanks Noel,
FinMac 2009, OS 10.4.11 (which, by the way, _seems_ to be OK up to
now. Keeping my fingers crossed ...)
What you suggest could work — but I was hoping for something a little
less cumbersome, as such measures occur _a lot_ in the music of the
Renaissance. I guess I was hoping for a command to make bar lines
independent, as you can with key and time signatures ...

Has anyone found a way to make one of four bar lines in a four-

of barring favored in certain circles of early music specialists,
whereby bar lines are "on staff only" where there is no "overlap",
and replaced by small dashes above and below the staff where there
is (similar to Mensurstrich). I have no trouble creating such
special bar lines, but up to now have been unable to apply them to
single measures, probably because Finale understands measures as
"stacks". I have RTFM and found nothing in it to help me. Any ideas?
You don't say which version of Finale you're using; assuing this
works, first thing I'd try is to define a staff style which hides
bar lines, apply it to the staff where you want the independent bar
line, and define a shape expression to place the broken barlines.
