Filter barlines

I’m using ScanScore to make XML files of many PDFs. It has a problem in that it makes every barline thick. All I have to do to fix it is select the barline and hit delete. It takes a lot of time to select them all individually. I’m wondering if there’s a way to filter select them all. There is no barline filter and the vertical line filter doesn’t select them.

If you use the system track to select everything, then you can filter on Time Signatures and hit delete.

This works because barlines and time signatures are closely related objects in Dorico. However, it will also delete any actual time signatures, which may not be desirable.

Note that when you filter on time signatures, the barlines won’t actually turn orange, but they are selected.

That worked great. I can save the time signatures by doing it in regions between time signature changes. Thanks!
