Sib. 7.5: split score with unwanted brackets
Posted by Brenda C. Kayne - 24 Mar 12:11PM
Am not sure how I did this one, but in the middle of the page (and just one page, nowhere else), the score separated and starts up again with brackets. I can bring all the staves together again, but how does one get rid of the brackets without eliminating the brackets at the left of the page?

Select the bar after the gap. Open the Inspector. Set "Gap before bar" to zero.

Thanks. Easily done. Whatever I did, though, to create that effect added unwanted notes to a soprano line, but got rid of that just by deleting. Weird. Thanks for the quick reply.

This gap is typically caused when the end of a line of music is dragged around. Maybe you wanted the gap, e.g. when delimiting a Coda. More often it was a misguided attempt to move a bar onto the next line.

That makes sense and will help me be more careful - I'm sure the dragging did it.
