Automatically

If you have added brackets for some staves on the Layout page of the Score Settings dialog, you can have bar lines broken between each bracketed “section”, giving a clearer indication of which staves belong together:

Procedure

  1. Open the Score Settings dialog from the Score menu and, on the Project page, select the “Notation Style” subpage.
  2. In the Bar Lines section, locate and activate the “Break Bar Lines with Brackets” option.

    The option Break Last Brackets determines whether the breaking of bar lines should also apply to the bar line at the end of each row.
