The intro of the song has half a bar of 4 notes before the kick/bass comes in on the first chord of Ab.
As there are 4 bars across in the chord windows of BIAB Id like half a bar on the first line then 4 bars as usual from line 2.
Is this possible?
------------------
If not is there a way to split 1 bar into half a bar for the 4 notes intro before the first chord comes in? Because a whole bar for that intro of 4 notes is too long.
First remove the count in bars so song starts on bar 1, then use F5 to set the first bar to 2/4. This will permit 2 beats in measure 1 which should allow the 4 pickup eight notes I hear. Set the song form so the first bar is an intro. Then change bar 2 to 4/4 for the rest of the song. You will have to put the pickup notes in via midi Or Playable Real tracks (PRT). Use F5 to set who plays what when,
With BB 2023 you will be able to copy notes to the count-in bars (just needs fixing at the moment) you can also use volume automation to mute half the bar, the BB 2023 has master track volume automation. You can also use midi notes for pickup notes.

What photo sharing site are you using to share that screen shot? I've always used the free photobucket but now they want me to pay. I don't use it enough to justify.
Following your instructions I don't see the same results are you. I'm running BIAB 2022 standard layout. Can't see how to change the display of BIAB?
I can't get half a bar on a single line
I cant show 2/4 or 4/4 in the boxes as you are showing

The jpg file is loaded via the File Manager. Available here in the forum. No need for external sharing. This is actually BIAB 2023 I am using. But the time signatures should be displayed same as BIAB 2022. There may be a preferences selection to turn on the viewing?? Moving any bars to a second line is done with the part markers which are indicated by the colored section. That may also be a preference "new line for each mark marker"

You do need to select the "Full Reply" option toi see it, then it's located jest below the text window as a hyperlink.
I can confirm BiaB 2022 shows the time signatures. Maybe you're not doing what we think.
Click on bar 1 where the first chord is, then hit F5, then near the top left set "#Beats This Bar" to 2, then click OK.
To get the bar on a line on it's own, click on bar 2 where the bar-number digit is to get a coloured part marker. Normally this will force a line break; if it doesn't there's an option for that somewhere (Hm, where? .. Ah Prefs->Display->lower-right-ish)
Click on bar 2 where the first chord is, then hit F5, then near the top left set "#Beats This Bar" to 4, then click OK.
Jazz relative beginner, starting at a much older age than was helpful. Kawai MP6, Korg M50, Ui24R, Saffire Pro 40. AVL:MXE Linux; Windows 11; Win8.1: Scarletts BIAB2022 UltraPAK, Reaper, a bunch of stuff.
You mentioned you want to have some pickup notes in the first bar. To do that you will need to enter the midi which is typically done in the Melody track. When you save this file the default .sgu will turn into a .mgu file. So you have no yet added the pickup notes. No problem, I can add them. Send the .sgu file .
The gray chord titles (not grayed end of bar marker section) are likey due to you changing the beats/bar so that there are not enough beats to play the later chord. That should be fixable.
