I've always had measure numbers displayed in all measures, now it doesn't, so a setting changed obviously. I've checked the manual, online, can't seem to get exactly what I want. Thanks to anyone for telling me where the setting is.

I wonder if it would help to delete those extra measure number regions, unless there is some reason for them.

Bill Stevens,
From your description it sounds like you do not need any extra measure number regions.
In most Finale documents only one measure number region is needed.
{Multiple measure number regions} is typically used in a multi-movement document.

Hi, thanks for that, I did as you said (I think): staff tool, select all (Control A), but I don't see "show measure numbers" anywhere.

There's also this - does that mean the measure numbers are set to only 1 point?

It sure could. So maybe the numbers are there, just too small to see? And I agree with the suggestion to get rid of the extra regions.N Grossingink wrote: ↑Tue Dec 28, 2021 12:03 amThere's also this - does that mean the measure numbers are set to only 1 point?

Okay.....how do I change the font for the measure numbers?......not sure which font is being referred to......also, how do I "get rid of the extra regions?"

Gosh, thank you so much. Actually there are different places for font settings in finale, which can be a complicated program for someone like me who is not that bright. And I confess I don't understand anything about "regions." I actually just started with a private instructor, a finale expert who is helping me through a lot of the stuff that I never really learned in the beginning. So hopefully I will be less clueless in the future.
