To hide (or show) staff-related items

Finale gives you staff-by-staff control over the display of such staff-associated items as measure numbers, clefs, repeat brackets, and so on. For example, you probably don’t need measure numbers to appear in both the top and bottom staves of your piano part, so you can hide the measure numbers on one staff. See also Global Staff Attributes, where you can set the staff attributes for a number of staves at one time.

1. Click the Staff Tool  . The Staff menu appears.
2. Select a staff handle, then choose Edit Staff Attributes from the Staff menu. (Or, double-click a staff handle, or a staff name handle.) Or, choose Edit Staff Attributes from the Staff menu without selecting a staff. The Staff Attributes dialog box appears. To display the attributes of another staff, choose a staff from the Staff Attributes for drop-down list. (Or, use the arrow controls to select a staff from the Staff Attributes for drop-down list.)
3. Change the settings in the Staff Attributes dialog box to show or hide items for the staff. In the Items to Display section, select or deselect as many checkboxes as you wish. For details, see Staff Attributes dialog box.
4. Click OK to confirm your settings.
