Making a barline that is single for the solo and winged double for the SATB voices

• Oct 7, 2024 - 20:11

Hi,

I am trying to create a barline on the left of the Alto solo+SATB staves. I would like it to be single for the solo and winged double for SATB, like I have seen in other scores for choir. When I try to change the barline, it simultaneously changes for all the voices, even if I select only a portion of the barline corresponding to one voice. I would like this custom barline used automatically on the left when MuseScore creates a new set of five staves for Alto solo+SATB.

The example with the empty score is attached.

Can someone help me figure this out?
Very much appreciated.

Is this what you want?

If so, I added that in the attached MS file.

To perform this, you would select the 1st measure in staff 2, 3, 4 and 5 and then in the palets, open the Hooks palet and click the Winged bracket.

If not, can you please share a sample of what you want?

Yes, this is exactly what I wanted! Thank you. For me, the winged bracket was in "Brackets", not "Hooks" palette. But I found it all right!

May I ask one more question: how do I make sure that the measure lines go from top to bottom over all five staves, without extending each line in each stave individually?
