Hiding/Showing rests after the last note in voices

You can manually hide/show rests after the last note in voices until the next barline.

Note

You cannot hide rests after notes that are immediately followed by another note in the same voice on the selected staff.

Procedure

  1. Select the last note in the voices after which you want to hide rests. You can do this in Write mode and Engrave mode.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate/deactivate Ends voice in the Notes and Rests group.
  3. Optional: Select the rhythmic position at which point the selected voices end from the following options:

    • Immediately

    • After barline

Result

Rests are hidden after the selected notes when Ends voice is activated, and shown when it is deactivated.
