If you have added brackets for some staves on the Layout page of the Score Settings dialog, you can have barlines 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 Barlines section, locate and activate the “Break Barlines with Brackets” option.

    The option Break Last Brackets determines whether the breaking of barlines should also apply to the barline at the end of each row.
