Measure numbers
You can display the
measure numbers, by double-clicking with the arrow tool in front
of a staff. In the dialog box, check "Each measure" or
"Each system". You can apply this to one or more
staves. When the numbers appear in the score, you can move them.
In the same dialog box, you can define the first measure number.
Pizzicato will use it to begin to count. In some Pizzicato
versions, a more powerful tool helps you to manage multiple rests
or irregular numberings. By selecting a measure, go to
"Measure parameters..." in the "Edit" menu.
The "Measure numbering" frame lets you assign a given
number to each measure. The measures that follow will continue
the counting accordingly. You can for instance number the
measures of several exercises which are on the same page,
assigning number 1 to each first measure of a new exercise. To
create a 5 measures rest, use the frame "Measure duration",
to create a measure to count and specify the number of measures
to count. While playing, Pizzicato will count these measures
before playing the next one.
