Rests? What are rests? OOOH, those things performers tell me I use too few of.
:)
Seriously, I don't recall how I handled those things... haven't done it in a
while, certainly way before linked parts (and probably many other recent
Finale developments that have made difficult things easier).
But

don't need an extra entry. But you need at least ONE entry in the measure to
attach the lyric barline to. If a part has rests, it isn't possible. Or is it?

In this case (and given that the piece is not too long), I would enter all on
one line.
It requires planning how many bars per system.
I then would enter say 6 bars of part 1 followed by 5 bars of part two.
All the music in the middle can be entered normally and then the opposite at
the end.

My mind is boggling right now. This means that you need to enter an entry (note

space using blank articulations means that the ex

The reason for this is that I need to represent two melodies, the second being

It depends on exactly what you need to do. You can hide barlines with a
staff style, then override them with group barlines. In most cases where I

for this, i would also *definitely* use a shape expression (and

change, and then you may have to
There are so many kluges.
For many measures that need separate barlines, I use barlines as lyrics and
type them in.

Hi Giovanni,
I think the only way is to create a large measure, then add in the barlines as
expressions. I think recent versions of Finale already have barlines created as
expressions for this purpose.
You might have to mess around with music spacing to recreate the space after a
barline that
For the moment all I can think of is this:
Hide certain bar lines with a staff style, then replace them with graphic bar
lines created with the Expression tool.

As always with my replies, someone will reply afterwards with a proper
solution... ;-)
I just use smart-shape lines to do this.

I need to show two different bar lines in two different staves in the same
measure. The staves are grouped together. The measure attributes will change
all of the bar lines in the same way and it looks like there's no way to create
a staff style with such a behavior. Is there any way to accompli
