Greetings…

So I’ve been using Finale since version 2.0 and I’m finally getting to asking 
this question regarding measure numbers in scores…

When I set up a project in Wizard I end up with a score that has bar numbers at 
the top staff of each group.  So, for instance, in the arrangement I’m working 
on right now, on each page of the score (except p. 1, of course), I get bar 
numbers at the start of the following staves...
        Flute
        Horn
        Timpani
        Percussion
        Harp
        Voices
        Piano
        Strings
…which looks cluttered to me.  Ideally, I’d like the score to have bar numbers 
maybe on the top staff and the 1st Violins or maybe top staff and bottom staff 
only.  But of course, I want bar numbers on all parts.  

If I simply delete the bar numbers from the staves (in the score) where I don’t 
want them will that affect the parts, or just the score?

Silly question, perhaps, but I’ve always wondered, and by the time I’m creating 
and tweaking the parts, the last thing I want to do is start screwing up the 
bar numbers, so I always end up leaving the score in its “cluttered” state…

Thanks!

Neal Gittleman
