Crazy extra bar lines created

• Mar 16, 2011 - 04:39

Hello,
I'm new here and to the software. I just downloaded version 1.0 for my Mac.
I'm getting crazy extra bar lines all over the place. In m.4 (bass part) I can't seem to add fill out the 3rd and 4th beats of the bar - it only accepts notes added to the next measure. But whenever I add any action - even Undo, it adds bar lines all over the place. What's going on? I have to constantly Reload to eliminate those bar lines, but that doesn't fix the problem
Thanks so much for your help!

I deleted the two faulty measures. You will need to type those two measures out again, but the crazy extra bar lines are now gone.

If you discover a series of steps that cause these faulty bar lines to appear please share this information on the forum.

Dear David,

Thanks so much for your help. Unfortunately I downloaded the attachment of this file, and the problem seems to persist. I am unable to add any more beats/notes to the bass part in m.4, and when I add any action, even Undo, it adds extra bar lines. I am not sure what steps led to this - one day I downloaded the software and entered in the entire upper line melody. The next day I went back to the beginning to fill in the other parts and this happened.
If I control-click to try to get rid of a bar line, it just adds more.
?

I'm checking this score with Musescore 1.0, Win7 32bit.

I find in the double-bass part measure 5, I can only enter two notes. I've deleted all measure 5's, and even deleted the double-bass measures 1-5 and still that bar only allows 2 notes. I don't see anything in measure or staff properties thats amiss. I suspect score corruption.
