Measures

• Sep 4, 2025 - 23:07

In YouTube tutorials my windows 11 system does not have the menus described. For instance to set up a pick up measure I have successfully right clicked the first bar but I do not get a pallet menu appearing with measure properties including Actual. I can click on Properties but the menu shown is different. Please give me instructions for musescore 4 using a laptop with Windows 11. The handbook has no help for setting up pick up measures or anacrusis when I enter these terms in the Search bar.

Interesting. I just typed "anacrusis" into the search bar and came up with the same link as underquark did.
The problem with YouTube is you never quite know what version of MuseScore they are for or how old they are.
Version of Windows makes no difference.
After you right click on the measure in question, the video should have told you to scroll down to "Measure properties". No palette involved. That is if you are using MuseScore 4.
4.5.2 being the latest.
