Curiouser and curiouser...
I tried adding more measures to make a total of 18 and voila, the meter in measure 9 now hides. But... it has transferred the problem to the last measure where the meter...

Re: Staff Repeat not Working V2.6
Well I've answered the first part myself - forgot about the start repeat! :o
Even so I don't recall seeing start repeats in normal notation. Is it just left out for convenience?
Anyway I would...

Re: Measure Numbers for Repeat Staff Endings
Well I've used a recovery file with measure numbers starting at 1 again. But no way can I change the score so that line 3 has 4 bars for measures 10-13, and so on. It's bizarre - if I try to set it...
