No rest at Grand Pause and fermata

Another problem, I need to complete the G.P. and the fermata with a rest. How can I do this when the rests are hidden throughout the whole score?

Have you deleted the rests (by ending the voice), or just hidden them, e.g. scaled to 1%…?

A fermata should sit correctly above the “rest”, if you hide it.

(Why are all the rests hidden?)

If your bar rests are hidden by default in Layout Options, you can try showing them again, add the fermata on a bar rest, then hide them again. The fermata should then appear centered.

I hid the rests using an option available in Layout Options and I need to see a rest only in this bar with fermata

Then you could enter notes in another voice (which you then hide, you can also suppress Playback), and input the bar rests in the main voice by pressing Shift+B, and typing “rest”

Maybe someone will have a better idea…

This solution doesn’t work when the condensing feature is enabled. I solved it using “Playing Techniques” by adding a rest in each system.
