Hello,

I have a four-movement piece within a single finale file. How can I have the measure numbers start at 1 for each movement?

For example:
    Mov. I: measures 1-55
      Mov. II: 1-32 (instead of measure 56-88), etc.

      Thanks in advance for any help.

      Document menu > Edit Measure Number Regions…

      The first movement should have its own Measure Number Region, including only the measures of the first movement (= m. 1–55).

      You will have to add a measure number region for each new movement, and set up which measures are included in each region.
