I just tried it in Finale v25, and you’re right, any group you add applies to the whole system, never to a partial system. Even though I applied it to ONLY measures 1 through 3, ALL the measures in the first system got their barlines extended between staves. At least it was only the system! So

I want to include time signatures in a Word document, preferably with one number directly above the other, rather than making it look like a fraction. I have tried superscripts and subscripts, but something resembling real music notation would be better. Also, I do not just want regular time

Hi, Am curious why you want to do this at all? Am certainly no expert, but I cannot think of any "best practices" that would suggest this sort of staff change. If you share what it is you need the players to do, then perhaps there will be some suggestions forthcoming that will do what you need

You could use the fonts "Times musical roman" or "Bach", which don't affect the line spacing as does "Maestro", and include a number of time signatures. Eric Sent from my iPhone > On 16 Apr 2017, at 17:08, Michael Lawlor wrote: > > I want to include time signatures in a Word document, preferab

I guess the only way is to apply a Staff Style without barlines to the measures you want the barlines between them; then use Expression Tool to place the barlines as Shapes outside and between the staves. On Apr 16, 2017, at 12:48, Haroldo Mauro wrote: > I am trying to do that but fail everyt

You could also look at the Metronome Font by DVM Publications (DVMPublications.com) I¹ve been using it for years (along with their very useful MetTimes font) to put symbols, rhythms, etc. in Word documents.
