When importing XML, I’m often left with time signatures and manual barlines throughout, which I just want to delete.
Is there are quick way to do this? It’s a bit like ‘whack-a-mole’ – whenever I try to Select All time sigs and delete, more pop up in their place.
Ben,
I’m trying to imagine what this would look like (pre-export) and what you would be using XML to transfer into if you are exporting from Dorico. Are these time signatures and bar lines that are hidden in the original?
Stuff like this:
The second time sig signpost will not delete; which suggests there’s a manual barline.
So, I’m basically having to delete each barline, one at a time.
I’ve not found a foolproof method, but I generally manually remove all double barlines first, then select all meter signposts and delete them. Sometimes it works, other times not.
It would be useful if meter changes were removed from the end of the flow first when doing a bulk removal.
If Delete does not work, try Cut.
