Do you care about playback? It might be easiest to just do that on consecutive staves.

This is a screenshot of the first section of the manuscript. You can see that the treble and bass are not connected as a system and barlines are independent.

I need to be able to:

- Set the treble and bass either without them being in the same system, or at least visually, so they don't look like they're in the same system.
- set various parameters individually, in particular, barlines showing on one stave and not the other.
- either hide or set separately aspects such as time signatures, etc.

Hopefully, the attachment makes it clearer what I need to do.

Hi Peter

I've opened the PDF you've attached but several elements are missing. (Noteheads, time sigs etc)
I believe that it is because I do not have the font used to create those elements installed on my system.
Can you reporduce that PDF but embed the fonts (or just attach a jpg/png of the pahe)

Cheers...

Daz. :o)

I suppose that you by your words {independent, but multiple staves} mean {independent barlines / staggered barlines}, right?

Yes, it is possible.

However, we need more info about the actual layout.

Generally you can get any such layout, but some solutions require advanced workarounds.

Without knowing the actual layout we can not suggest the best solution.

I attach a particular advanced example. It was done in Finale.

Is it possible to insert a mid-measure barline and have independent, but multiple staves? I know you can add a barline as an expression, but I was hoping to be able to do it another way.
