Horisontal frame to section end

• Jan 4, 2018 - 17:05

I have tried for hours to append a horisontal frame to section end rather than to end of score. Just one bar in the last row and it stretches all over the page width. Ugly... :-(

"Append" in MuseScore indeed means to the end of the score. You want "Insert" instead. As in, select the first measure after where you want the frame, then use "Insert" to add the frame in front. Then adjust the line breaks if needed to make sure the frame ends one system and the next measure starts another.

If you need further assistance, please attach your score and describe what you are trying to do in more detail.

As I said, you also may need to adjust the line breaks. You currently have both a page and a section break right on that last measure of the first section. You don't want that; you want the break to appear after the horizontal frame, not after the measure. So delete the breaks from the last measure of the section and add them instead to the frame that follows. Right now you have only a single frame there, you probably actually want two - one at the end of the first section, one at the beginning of the second. But that's up to you - some people like to use frames to indent the beginnings of movements, and I'm guessing that is what you are trying to do.

So, to summarize:

1) remove the breaks
2) select the existing frame you have at the beginning of the second section
3) insert horizontal frame
4) add breaks to the newly inserted frame
