Add Lyrics Removing a measure is just as simple of a process as adding one. Select a barline on a staff. This will open the Barline Palette. From here, simply select the "Delete Measure" button. This will remove the measure (and all of its notation) from the staff. The following example should be a better visual explanation. Here we have 3 measures. Measures 1 and 3 both have a quarter note on count 1. Measure 2 is empty (it is a measure of rest).
Let's say we want to remove the measure of rest (measure 2) from the staff. Select the barline for measure 2 (this would be the barline directly under the #2. If your measure numbers aren't displaying you may turn them on under the Document Options button on your toolbar), and the Barline Palette will open. From here, press the Delete Measure button, and this will remove the measure from the staff.
Now we will have 2 measures as opposed to 3, and the old measure 3 has adjusted to become the second of the 2 measures on our staff.
Note: It's important to mention that there is
an alternative way to remove notation from a measure without removing the
measure itself. It is possible (and sometimes preferred, depending on the
situation) to "reset" a measure by changing any notation in the measure to
a whole rest. This is done by simply selecting any note or rest in the
measure and then selecting the Whole Rest button from your Note Palette.
You may also select the "Delete" button from the Note Palette. This
will also default the measure to a measure rest. |
