Thanks Christopher. You guessed correctly at my meaning although all  
my question's words didn't come out in the e-mail. Thanks for your  
solutions.

All the best,

I don't think that's what he means. He wants two different PARTS to  
have different measure number settings.


I think the easiest way to achieve this is to extract the one part  
with different number settings (the vocal part) and change them once  
extracted. You won't have the part linked any more, but that isn't  
as much of a pain in the neck as I expected it to be on the  
occasions I've done it.


An alternative is to set up two different regions, then number one  
of them to start at measure 999 while you print the other parts,  
then switch it to start at measure 1 and the OTHER region at measure  
999 while you print the vocal part. You will have to remember to  
make that change every time you print parts, though. That's why I  
think the extracted part is a better solution.


I think I remember jef chippewa coming up with this scheme before we  
had separate layout for score and parts.


Kim, I think another solution to your problem (which is probably  
that measure numbers collide with the lyrics, right?) is just to  
have the normal linked part, then in page view in the vocal part,  
select the measure tool, hit command-A to select all (which will  
select the measure numbers) then drag them to above the staff all at  
once. You might have to do this once for each page, but it is very  
easy to do and prevents measure number collisions. Just make sure  
they are close enough to the staff that the singer associates them  
with the proper measure, NOT the measure above!

There are several different settings for each in the lower two  
thirds of the dialogue box that should accomplish that.


Is that what you need?

  Question:

  In MacFin2011 can we have = the bar numbers formatted  
differently in

  different parts?

   = nbsp;  For instance, in the vocal part I want the bar number  
to appear   only at the beginning of each system on top of the  
staff. In the instrumen   tal parts I want the bars numbers to  
appear in each bar below the staff.

  All the best,
