Moving a bar to another row

• Sep 20, 2018 - 19:21

Hello I am rewriting a song from a paper to my computer but I need help about getting one bar to another row.
The situation is: In the first row of the notation I need three bars, then in every other row I need four bars.
Could someone help me out? Thanks

Put a system break in the 3rd measure, then select the fourth through the end and use Edit->Tools->Add/Remove system breaks.

It's worth pointing out though that just because the paper copy you have now happens to lay out that way doesn't mean it has to be that way. They might have been using different software, with different fonts, different spacing, different sizes, etc. It's usually best to stick with the defaults for each program - you'll get the most consistently good results that way. Only override this if you have a really specific reason.
