Hiding Time Signatures and Bar numbers

OK Pulling my hair out over this one! I want to hide Time Sigs and bar numbers. I understand that this is possible through the panels but I cannot find anything that allows me to toggle the view anywhere. In the Time Sig Panel I have 3 options: Time Sigs used in this flow then common time sigs and Create Time Sig. There is nothing saying hide or show. As for bar numbers…?
Help please.
Cheers, Tom

Select the time signature in the score, and open the properties panel at the bottom. You’ll find the “Hide” toggle.

Layout Options—Bar Numbers.

Thank you Dan! I am still learning the terminology and where things are! So the properties panel is the bottom panel then?
I nee to to RTFM again! Is there a global option for hiding sigs that I have also missed?
Cheers, Tom

There isn’t a global way of turning off Time Signatures, but you could select one time signature, Select More (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+A) and then hide them all in one go, from the properties panel. Yes, the properties panel is the bottom one.

I followed the steps above and the time signature is still showing. The piece is in 4/4, starting with on quarter note pickup. I’m trying to hide the 3/4 in the last measure.

Welcome to the forum, Anton!

You don’t need to make a 3/4 and hide it. Just add the final barline after 3 beats: Select the last quarter, type Shift-B and enter final – or add it from the panel on the right. As long as the 4th beat is empty, it will disappear.

Thanks Mark for the speedy reply :+1:

The properties panel show Time Signatures but nothing about hiding.

When you have a time signature selected, you will see a Hide time signature property in the Properties panel.
