Thank you for your answer. The thing that I want to do is to make the measure appears with a whole note rest, not with a multemeasure rest of only one measure. This is what I obtain enabling the "Break multimeasure rest" option.
thank you again.

From your image it looks as if you applied "Break multi-measure rest" to every empty measure?
You should apply "Break multi-measure rest" only to the first empty measure which starts the multi-measure rest. Then apply "Break multi-measure rest" to the measure where you wish to break the multi-measure rest.

Thank you very much. Thats a good trick!. I will do it with the only one measure rests. Fortunately there are no so much measures with only one multimeasure rest.
(I suppose that you have hide the original rest behind the symbols, haven't you? That's what I have done as I have not been able to delete the whole rest)
Thank you again! You have been so kind!
