I need to change the time signature before my DC to 2/4 as shown in red in the attachment. When I do that, the time signature in the coda changes to 2/4, but needs to stay in 3/4. Any ideas how to solve?
Unfortunately I think the only way will be to add the time signature digits at the D.C. using Shift+X text.
That worked - thx. Now if I can only move the double bar before the 2/4 without losing the 5 staff lines behind 2/4.
What if you created a time change with a very small pickup (1/64th note). Hide the rest by setting the Alpha channel to 0. Adjust spacing in Engrave mode if needed. You’d get a tiny hiccup in playback but it would look good.
Can this be done while hiding the bar to the right of 2/4? I don’t think it is supposed to be there…
Ed, do you mean hide the barline? I think this can be done in Write mode by pressing the Delete key.
Unfortunately you can’t easily delete the barline at the end of a system, currently.
I don’t think you can delete the barline either…will leave the whole thing as is…close enough.
I think I’ve found a way. If you don’t need dashed barlines elsewhere, do this…
Set the barline to dashed, then in Engraving Options > Barlines, set the dash length to 0.
Genius. Thanks for that.
Success! I wound up doing the following.
- Added an extra bar in 3/4
- Hide 3/4 TS
- Add 2/4 as glyphs
- Hide bar rests by setting alpha to 0
- Made bar only as wide as 2/4 glyphs
- Added dashed barline and set dash length to 0 as Craig F recommended
- Renumbered following bar to 1 less than it was to account for new, fake bar
