To change barlines in a selected region (or at regular intervals)

Using this method, you can either change all barlines in a region to a specific type (such as an Invisible barline), or you can change barlines at regular intervals (for example, creating a double barline every eight measures).

1. Click the Measure Tool  , and select the region you want to affect. See Selecting music for some region-selecting shortcuts.
2. From the Measure menu, choose Edit Measure Attributes. The Measure Attributes dialog box appears.
3. Click to select the barline type you want. In the Change Every Measures text box, enter the frequency of barlines you want to change. In other words, to create a double barline every eight measures, select the double barline and enter 8 in the Change Every text box. (If you’re changing all barlines, leave a 1 in this text box.)

If you’re creating a part that will be extracted, you may also want to select the Break a Multimeasure Rest checkbox (by clicking it twice), so that Finale will break bars of rest at each double barline.

5. Click OK (or press enter).
