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

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

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

staff tool : you can create a group for only 1 measure or a few. do your layout first because the barline appearances depend on the group the 1st measure on the system belongs to, as i recall. i'm away from finale at the moment so can't verify 100% the details of what i wrote :P but that

You can probably do it with some combination of Group Barlines and Measure Barlines and enabling/disabling "Override Group Barlines" in the measure attributes dialog. But I'd have to see the specific example to say for certain. On Sat, Apr 15, 2017 at 2:06 PM, Barbara Touburg
