Partial Measure Selection dialog box

How to get there

Select a region containing partial measures.
Choose a menu command that can only be applied to full measures.

What it does

This alert appears when you select only part of a measure but then choose a command that works only on full measures, such as Check Ties, Convert Mirrors, Explode Music, Implode Music, Music Spacing, Fit Measures, or Move/Copy Layers.

Don't show this message again. Select this option to hide this alert in the future. When this option is selected, choosing a full-measure menu command when a partial measure is selected automatically affects the entire measure without confirmation.
OK • Cancel. Click OK to apply the menu command to the entire measure. Click Cancel to return to the score.
