Hiding/Showing tacet al fine on multi-bar rests at the end of flows

You can change the appearance of multi-bar rests that extend to the end of flows in all layouts project-wide. By default, multi-bar rests that extend to the end of flows show tacet al fine above the staff instead of the total bar count.

Procedure

  1. Press Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-E to open Engraving Options.
  2. Click Rests in the page list.
  3. In the Multi-bar Rests section, choose one of the following options for Multi-bar rests that extend to the end of the flow:

    • Show tacet al fine

    • Show bar count

  4. Optional: Change the value for Minimum number of bars’ rest at the end of flow to show ‘tacet al fine’.
  5. Click Apply, then Close.

Result

The appearance of all multi-bar rests at the end of flows is changed project-wide. Changing the value for Minimum number of bars’ rest at the end of flow to show ‘tacet al fine’ changes when tacet al fine is shown to only multi-bar rests containing the set number of bars or more.
