I think my approach would be to simply select the bars, change the time signature with "rebar music" set, then delete the empty bars created. As for the layout, keep a rough draft so you can see your original system breaks. After making the time signature change these will be messed up, but if you set them all again to match the earlier draft, the fit should be roughly the same, and your optimization, layout, etc should still mostly work. Another option might be to select the section and use the measure tool to change the barlines to invisible, with "change every 2 measures" set. The most serious problem of this is that you'll have a little extra space in the middle of each (apparent) 6/4 bar. Also, you'll have to fix the measure numbers and get the time signatures to appear properly. mdl _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
