When viewing a score in layout view mode, some sequences may show a time signature change at the beginning of the stave line instead of the actual position of the time signature change. Additionally, double bar lines at these positions are not drawn through all staves. When looking at the single sequence in the Score editor, the bar position is correct.
An automatic multi rest had been inserted manually into the sequence which shows the wrong time signature position.
The multi rest is placed in the bar before the time signature change.
The multi rest can also be placed ten bars before the time signature change, as long as there's nothing between the multi rest and the time signature change.
This may happen if:
The multi rest can also be placed ten bars before the time signature change, as long as there's nothing between the multi rest and the time signature change.
After deleting the multi rest from this sequence, the score layout displays correctly.
If you need to preserve the multi rest in the sequence for printing it as a single voice, you may do the following:
- Copy the sequence which contains the multi rest.
- Delete the multi rest(s) from the original sequence (not from the copy).
- Make sure the the original (now without the multi rests) is still included in your instrument set for the full score.
- Keep the copy (with multi rests) for single voice printing only. Make sure it is not part of your instrument set for the full score.
If you don't know how to create and manage instrument sets, please refer to the Score section of the Logic Pro manual or the Logic Pro Help.
