To display symbols for multimeasure rests

1. From the Document menu, choose Document Options and select Multimeasure Rests.
2. Select Use Symbols for Less Than ___ Measures. Finale’s default number of measures for using rest symbols (instead of shapes) is nine. Symbols are usually used for rests containing up to eight measures, and shapes are used for rests containing nine or more measures.
3. Optional: If you want to use symbols for multimeasure rests containing fewer or more measures than the default of nine measures, enter the number of measures in the Use Symbols for Less Than ___ Measures text box.
4. Click OK when your settings are complete. Finale uses these settings when you create multimeasure rests in the score. If you need to change the settings for a single multimeasure rest, use the Edit command in the Multimeasure Rests submenu (in the Measure menu).
