Time Signature
So...I need to change one bar in my score to 2/4...easy enough...highlight bar ...go to time signature palette and drag the 2/4 to the bar. Here's my problem...the bar does change to 2/4 time but the 2/4 doesn't appear in the bar. So I tried the same process on a sample page and it works fine....the bar changes to 2/4 and the 2/4 appears in the bar. Not sure what's up! Must be a simple solution!...any ideas? Thanks for any help!

Check whether display of time signatures has been disabled in the staff properties.
Otherwise consider attaching your score to a reply here, along with steps to reproduce the erratic behavior, so we can investigate what is going on.

jeetee, Thanks for the response. As I said, the display of the time signature is working fine, I tried it on several other pieces that I have, but it doesn't work on the current score. I'm using the same process, and the bar is changing time but not displaying the time signature.

Well, it could be the actual duration has been changed in measure properties or via any of the commands (insert, delete, join, split) that can have this effect. Again, posting your score would allow us to say for sure rather than just guess.

OK... that's good ..so please attach the score where the display of the time signature doesn't work and explain where you are trying to change it.

Bar in question is #92. Which should be 2/4 and bar 93 should be back to 4/4.

Unfortunately, that is only a picture. In order to understand and assist further we need the actual score.

As jeetee suggested in the very first response, you have turned time signature off in the Staff Properties for this staff. You'll need to re-enable it. So right-click the staff, Staff Properties, enable "Show time signature".
