DanRad Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I'm getting very erratic bar numbering on my full score. I've got the numbering set to "1" which should put a bar number on every bar... but it doesn't always do that. There will be 8 measures with no bar number, then all measure will be numbered. It always numbers a double bar and the beginning of a line. In the is picture, the top staff (which is the bottom of P.3) has a number at the beginning of the line... then the next page has all the bars numbered... Individual parts seem fine... Very strange.. any help is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Cardenas Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Hi Dan. I just dropped a couple of rests on those empty bars. White_Bread_FIX.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanRad Posted April 21, 2016 Author Share Posted April 21, 2016 Does that mean if I choose "Hide Rest" we lose the bar numbers? What's the Logic in that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanRad Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 Thanks so much Eric. I went through and dropped in rests which seemed to remedy the problem... but it really doesn't make sense... Why would hidden rests affect numbering? Is there some rational I'm missing. Thanks again. DanRad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volovicg Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Well what is happening is that you used multi-bar rests in your drum track, which when viewing the full orchestration - the measures were expanded to individual rests as other staves had notes in those measures. In that case, multi rests bar numbering is skipped (in a full score) - on a part basis there is an option under numbers and names to put all the measures included over top the single multi-rest, but in a full score it will omit those numbers. When Eric dragged in the rest - what was happening is that it converted the multi rest into measures with rests, hence corrected the bar numbering - you could have dragged in any note and it would have have done the same. So the solution ( in my option) is to just delete the multi-rest and the bar numbering will be correct. This way you retain control over whether to show/hide or how rests are displayed.....

volovicg Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 More info..... Sorry it was late last night.... This situation only occurs when you put the bar numbers on the last staff. If you set your vertical position of bar number placement to positive ( which will put bar numbers above the first staff) you can have multi bar measures included without it skipping measures. If you move bar numbers to the last staff ( by having a negative vertical position ) then the bar numbers will skip if there are multi bar rest included anywhere on the last staff. another option if you insist on using multi bar measures on the drum track and want the bar numbers at the bottom... is to create a score set and don't have the drums as the last track/staff - pick something else that doesn't have must-bar rests. In the attached there are 3 staves.... at bar 7 I inserted a multi bar rest on each staff. Then I added a note to measure 7 of staff one ( which makes the multi rests disappear ( however they are still there - meta data in each track). When I shift the the bar numbers from the top staff to the bottom staff... notice how it changes.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanRad Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 Thanks for the follow up and complete instructions. Seems like this is almost qualifies as a bug... why any multiple rests (which I use on a lot of parts) should affect the "score" numbering system is beyond me. I think the dropping in of rests seems to work (for the most part). Thanks for the help. DanRad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volovicg Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 I would say almost certainly a bug. Just explaining how it works, why and the cause /effect... Might save others some agony! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
