I created a 32 bar tune. I did not define 32 measures before I started (rookie mistake). Now I have a total of 255 measures. How do I delete the unused measures (M33- 255)? I found the "Delete measures" on the right click, but it is not working. I also found the "Delete bars" under the edit menu, but this is not working,either.

Help!

To the right of the song title and style is a box containing three numbers, the first number is the measure on which the chorus starts, the second is the number of measures in the chorus and the third is the number of times to play the chorus. You probably want is set as in the image. If you had a four measure into, then 32 measures of chorus then you'd want 4 36 1.

Hello, Gordon,

That is exactly what my interface looks like. I have 32 measures designated. But I still see M 33-255.

Ya, it is normal to see all the measures, but those unused measures should be grayed out meaning they are not part of the overall arrangement. At least that is how my screen shows it.

Got it. Thank you for the help. I will remember to set up measures in advance going forward.
