Help adding barlines

• Oct 7, 2011 - 20:30

Hey I need some instructions on how to add bar lines to a score after the score's created.

Thanks,

Anthony R.

Could you explain more what you mean? Normally, barlines are added automatically as you add notes; you would never normally need to add barlines beyond those. Have you read the handbook to learn how to enter notes, or watched any of the tutorial videos?

Are you saying that you want to add more measures? (A measure is the space between two barlines).

to add measures, click on any measure so that the measure is selected. Then go to > Create > Measure. If you want to add just one, then click on the "Add a Measure." If you want a number of measures then click on "Add Measures" and select the number that you want. The measure (s) will appear to the left of the measure you selected. If you want to simply add 50 more measures and you have space at the end (i.e., empty measures), you're best to go to the end and add them there.

If you want to change a barline to a repeat or end bar simply highlight the barline that you want to change and double click on the barline that you select from the "Barline" menu.

Hope that helps.
