Hi there,

Is it possible to have finale show double measure numbers according to the geography of the piece?

for instance:

I have 38 bars than a "D.S. al Coda" which jump back to measure 9 which should be measure 39 in reality!

is it possible to have both numbers (1st pass and 2nd pass) shown?

Thanks very much

Create another region (Measure menu->edit measure region), with the numbering starting at measure 9 counting from 39 ("Includes" = 9, "first measure of region" = 39), and adapt the positioning globally, to avoid the superposition of the numbers.
