Can't place horizontal frame at end of line

• Feb 7, 2019 - 04:40

I have checked related forums and the handbook but have not found a solution to this specific situation. I am putting together a method book (compilation of lots of small pieces) and will add some graphics. I have, in this case, a couple bars of music ending a piece. The next thing on the score is a text frame for the title of the next piece. I want to put a horizontal frame at the end of the line of music that comes before the text frame. I have tried messing around with line breaks, section breaks, eliminating section breaks... everything I try either places the frame between the two measures, before the first measure of the NEXT piece or on a line all by itself after the title. I'm stumped! I could delete the text and then redo it but that seems pretty cumbersome. Thanks for any ideas!!

That inserts it in front of the selected measure, but doesn't append if after that selected measure. If I understand the problem correctly...

In MuseScore 3(.5.0) you can insert a horizontal frame before vertical/horizontal/text frames, in MuseScore 2(.3.2) as used be the OP you can't. Well you can, but then need to apply a system break to the frame too. Seems to be a bug, but one that won't get fixed anymore, as MuseScore 3 doesn't have that bug...

Maybe I'm missing something, but it should be as simple as clickiing the "text text text" frame and using Add / Frames / Insert Horizontal Frame (or clicking the horizontal frame icon on the palette). This works perfectly for me.
