You need to do the same thing at repeats, when they appear to be
mid-measure repeats. For example, in a 3/4 piece, where the repeat
might come after 2 beats, create a 2/4 measure and a 1/4 measure,
setting Use Different Signature for Display to be 3/4.
I would never think of using Finale's built-in "pickup measure" function
for those situations, and like Darcy, I don't even use it at the start
of a piece either.
I've always used this workaround.

That may work for the first measure...my problem always comes at the repeat and
getting playback to work correctly.

Finale's "official" pickup measure method has always been buggy. I never use it and it's
not needed. Just use a regular measure set to "Display as" the same time sig as the first
complete measure, and begin measure numbering in m.2.
