When you create a repeat barline, it’s ordinarily drawn as a solid line across the space between any grouped staves (those connected by a bracket, for example). If you prefer, you can instruct Finale not to draw the barline continuously through the space between staves.

To break a repeat barline that connects staves

1. Click the Staff tool , and double-click the staff that’s just below the space where you want to omit the barline. The Staff Attributes dialog box appears.
2. Select Break Repeat Barlines Between Staves. Click OK.
