@ Daniel
Thanks for the explanation.
As it is not possible to deactivate the multi-bar function for one bar, you add this as an additional reason to allow some more flexibility with multi-bar rests as I wrote in post 11 and 15 from this thread:
@ Stephen Taylor
Thanks for trying
BTW
What would be the best solution to get a short final system but let the multi-bar rests active as they are needed at the beginning?
Manually moving the system handle at the end of the system with ALT + Left Arrow is possible but it takes really very long to achieve this (about 300 or more ALT+Left arrow clicks!).
I tried to insert a space with shift X in this bar as an invisible item to feign that this is not an empty bar but it does not work.
EDIT
I just discover that with CTRL + ALT + Left arrow the values are changing much faster, so shifting the system handle is indeed one possible way.
I still would like to know why adding a space with Shift X does not work.
