Chapter 3 details how to use the Options dialog box to specify how you want to see measure
numbers, if at all, and setting a default number of measures in each system.
The following details how to change the numbering sequence starting at any measure
and how to display or hide the number on a per-measure basis.
Change Numbering
If you have more than one section or movement in a score, you can restart measure
numbering at any point back to “1” – or any other number.
1. Ensure you are in Edit mode.
2. At the point where you need the measure numbering to change, double-click the existing measure
number in the score.
» A temporary text box appears with the current number displayed.
3. Replace the current number with the number you want.
4. Either click anywhere in the score area away from the temporary box or press Enter.
» Notion renumbers all subsequent measures correctly based on the number you Entered here – and stops if it
encounters a measure you had re-numbered at an earlier time.
Display/Hide Measure Numbering for a Measure
On a measure-by-measure basis you can display or hide the measure number, no
matter what your setting is for all measures in the Options dialog box.
1. Ensure you are in Edit mode.
2. Double-click the measure involved.
» The measure is highlighted.
3. Right-click to open a context menu.
4. Click Measure # (the measure number).
» A submenu appears.
5. Select either:
> Always Show Measure Number, or
> Never Show Measure Number
