Project-wide engraving options for barlines

You can find options for the project-wide appearance of barlines on the Barlines page in Engraving Options.

The options on the Barlines page allow you to change the appearance and thickness of barlines, and which barlines are used in different contexts.

There are musical examples for many options to demonstrate how they affect the appearance of your music.

You can open Engraving Options in any of the following ways:

  • Press Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-E in any mode.

  • Choose Engrave > Engraving Options in Engrave mode.

You can then click Barlines in the page list on the left of the dialog.
