I have a piece that uses mixed meters, which are hidden from view. At the end of some staves, where the key sig changes, I have staff lines protruding past the bar line (where the time sig change would have been indicated). How can I disable this?

Score attached.

Also, if anyone has constructive criticism regarding the placement of performance marks, accidentals, etc., please let me know.

Hi there

You should re-enter the time signatures that come at the beginning of the following lines, and untick the box for 'Allow cautionary'.

There is a plug-in that should help with this called 'Cautionary Time Signatures' which Bob Zawalich has written. It should download directly from this link: http://www.sibelius.com/download/plugin ... tml?id=326

Hope that helps
