Can the Hollywood (enlarged) time signatures be done only on a few select measures in the middle of a composition? I can only get them to work on the ENTIRE score and I only want them on a few different time signatures. TIA
Select the measure where you want the time signature to appear > right click on it > Measure Attributes > Time Signature / Always Show. This will show the time signature at that measure on all the staves you have chosen to show a time signature. If you then want it NOT to appear on certain staves, apply a staff style to that staff/measure that has "Times signature" unchecked

Hence, my suggestion to do it as an expression!
Keep in mind that if it signifies a TS change, you will have to change it in the score as usual, and hide the “normal” signature.
