Why my ending no 1 is on mesure 36 follow by ending no 2 still indicate measure 36 when I believe it should be on messure 37?
How to we correct this in order to have the measure 37 for the second ending? First time I ever encountered this.
Your help on this matter is welcomed.

Could you provide a screenshot of this spot, including one or two bars before and after the repeat, and signposts on?

Yes, I followed what you proposed, and it didnât work the first time Iâve tried it . My screen looks exactly as the screenshot that youâve sent me. So did it a second time and now it works just fine
Thank you so much for your help and time much appreciated.

Hi Charles
Thank you so much for your interest in solving the problem. Attached is the screenshot of the method that Aaron Sherber as mentionned and it works fine. I tought you mignt be interested to know how I solved it.
Thanks for you interest in helping beginner members of Dorico.

But, strictly speaking in terms of performance, there will be 35 bars before each of those two bars, wonât there? And the first ending bar and the second one will never be played back-to-back.
So, when we play it the second time, weâll go straight from bar 35 to your bar 37, which is odd. Usually, in this sort of situation, we mark the second repeat bar with a âbâ (36b) because, when we play it, it will actually be the 36th bar of the musicâŠ
Actually, no. There will be 35 bars played before the first ending, and 71 bars played before the second ending!
I know that itâs possible to find examples of several different approaches, but in my experience, published scores of the classical repertoire most often number measures straight through, as the OP desires (and as Dorico does by default).
There have been frequent requests (and discussions!) on this forum for this âHenleâstyleâ bar numbering:
But I believed the only way to achieve it was through a bar number change, as no option existed for this. However, it seems there is one after all (thanks @asherber!) , since Germain ended up with this type of numbering (and wanted to avoid it.)
I need to look into it more closely as soon as I can.
Example of discussion:
Voici comment Aaron Sherber corrects this downfall. I followed this procedure and it works perfect with the measure 36 and 37 numbered as it should be
Attached is the way to do it. Hope this help you solve your problem

Now that I go back and look more closely, while I was confident that my suggestion would get the numbering that the OP wanted, I think I misunderstood what normally happens with the other setting (âCount repeatsâ), since I never have things set that way.
Here Dorico is actually assigning two different numbers to each bar in the repeated section, literally numbering bars as they are played (and as I suggested in my reply above).
I donât think Iâve ever personally seen this in the wild. I have in the past seen numbering as the OP described, and as discussed in the thread @charles_piano links to (i.e., the bar in the first ending and the first bar of the second ending would both be numbered 10). But I guess I donât know why the OPâs score was originally displaying that way, since Dorico doesnât seem to offer an option for it, and Daniel seems to have objections to adding one.
Thanks you, but I have not any problem.
I only know the German way about the âcomptage de mesuresâ.
