It’s useful to remember that you can adjust 
 the relative widths of the measures in any particular system. 
        
        
            - Go to Page View, if you’re not already there. 
 You change views by choosing View > Page View.
 
            - Choose Utilities > Update Layout.
 
            - Click the Measure tool  
. A handle 
 appears on every barline. 
            - Drag the handle of any measure to the right 
 or left. As you make one measure wider, the one to its right becomes 
 narrower. (You can adjust all measures in a system except the last one 
 with this method.)
