Thanks Noel,

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 ...
It may be a bit late to do this now, but my preference in early music is
not to use any barlines at all, when possible. If you start a new
project for the same client, I would use a very large time
signature--say 100 / 4 display as 4 / 4, and put all bar lines in as
shape expressions. If MM responds favorably to my request to re-instate
unlimited staff lists in the expression tool, then one can simply apply
the needed bar line(s) with staff lists, which would be less cumbersome.
