Bar Lines and Repeats

Bar Lines and Repeats

To add, replace or insert a bar line, first click the icon in the menu and then position it in the score. Note:

• To add a (missing) bar line, click the right icon (1)  first and then click the exact position in the document. This splits the bar and adds a bar to the bar number count.
  
  
• To replace a bar line, click the icon you want to insert first (for example, click the (3) icon  for a normal bar line or the (4), (6) or (7) icon for other bar or repeat marks) and then click the end of the preceding measure (to the left of the bar line that is to be replaced).
• To delete a bar line, click on the second icon (2)  first and then click left to the bar line that you want to delete. This merges the two bordering bars and might fix wrong numbers of notes.

When you click the icon for "Coda Message" (5) , the cursor will look like a hand. Now click the position of the message you want to insert. In the dialog that opens, you can edit the text, the symbol and the layout. 

Now click OK. If you wish to edit an existing message, just double click it and the same dialog will appear.

When you click the icon for "Volta Brackets" (5) , the cursor will look like a hand. Now click the position of the volta bracket you wish to insert. In the dialog that opens, you can edit the length and the display text for the volta bracket. Now click OK. If you wish to edit an existing volta bracket, simply double click it and the same dialog will appear.
