Hiding a ( last ) Bar

Dorico
1

Hello all , hoping you are all doing great and smiling.. :slight_smile:

I have finally arrived to the end of my piece. I’d like to hide the last bar leaving space for the word Fin. but without a bar constraint. I have used a tick style instead of an extra double bar to somehow approach my intention but the ideal would be - no bar at all above “Fin.” -
Is it possible to do?
Thank you all in advanced for your comment and thank you all all very very much for the help I got here all throughout this work.
Cheers.
Regards ~ Rami.

Have you considered using a manual Cutaway for the final measure?

Here’s an alternative…
Layout options>Page setup>Flows…

(EDIT: There’s no need for your hidden/tick barline)

Adjust spacing of final system…
(And if needed shrink the music frame on the last page, so you don’t get extra blank systems)

Thanks for your reply - checking what that is… :slight_smile:

Thank you for your reply - somehow this solution didn’t work out for me, yet the cutaway and removing the last bar - did.
Thanks again very much for your reply.
cheers.

That’s worked out for me just great.
The software did show the cutaway bars under shade but in print they wouldn’t be visible.

*Only problem is that Dorico won’t stop playing at the “final” measure with the double bar marking but obviously will continue playing the next bar…

Thanks again very much for your reply.
cheers.
