No-Time-Signature System Breaks

• May 3, 2020 - 11:53

Hi everyone,
I write this post with maximum urgency.
I wrote a piece with no time signature indications (not without measures). Since time signatures still take space when invisible or inexistent, if there is an inexistent time signature change in a system break, the last measure of the system will display a continuous staff, as if the time signature "anticipation" was present, like displayed above.

How could I erase this unwanted staff space?
I really need to have this done by today...
Thanks for the attention.

Deselect "show courtesy" inside the inspector.
Instead of using invisible time signature, you also can change the actual measure duration in measure properties.

Even better, though, if you don't intend to show time signatures, don't add time signature changes at all. If you need the measures to have different numbers of beats, just do that directly, using the split and join commands in Tools / Measures, the "Actual duration" setting in Measure Properties, or simply inserting or removing notes or rests from the measure (e.g., Insert mode to insert notes, Ctrl+Delete to delete beats). Way easier and less likely to cause other issues.
