Multimeasure rests and visibility of breathing marks

• Jun 2, 2025 - 09:31

I’ve a small problem with visibility of a caesura (Zäsur in German). I haven’t found a caesura in MS so I used the beathing mark instead.
Now, while visible ok in the normal case, they will not be visible if I use multimeasure rest, see, for example, the breathing mark just before rehearsal mark 13 in the attached file. This applies for the score as well as the parts.

I haven’t tried breaking multimeasure rests for the measure containing the breathing mark but are there any other ways keeping the multimeasure rests unchanged?

NB, if I insert the breathing mark in the following measure (the very first note) they will be misplaced which I probably could manually adjust.

I don't have anything to contribute about making the breath marks visible, but there definitely are caesura in MuseScore. They are in the Breaths & pauses palette.

The bottom four markings (yellow highlight) are named, left to right, "Curved caesura", "Caesura", "Short caesura", and "Thick caesura". If you don't see them, look in the More menu (green highlight).

Thanks for the replies. The suggestion proposed by rothers works but as Jojo says, it's probably a bug. I will report it on GitHub.
