I am using Finale 2014 and I want to write a piano piece that has a given time signature (to give the pulse), but I don't want it to have any bar lines. Is there a way to remove all of them from the document?

1@BobBroadley that's interesting. My question would have been 'in which program can I do that', but it would've been off topic. I'll see if I can do it on Sibelius– ShevliaskovicMay 8 '16 at 11:18

1For $DEITY$'s sake, why? If you want a pulse, do it right. If you don't want a pulse, then kill the time signature. Or <wiseassmode> set the time signature to 46286028563725/4 and be done with it </wiseassmode>– Carl WitthoftMay 8 '16 at 12:26

@BobBroadley He's not talking about staves. He's asking about measure bars.– Carl WitthoftMay 8 '16 at 12:38

@BobBroadley correct; my mistake there. I don't want bar lines– ShevliaskovicMay 8 '16 at 13:11

I use Finale extensively. This is very easy.
1.) Select the region you want to edit.
2.) Right-click
3.) Go to "Barlines"
4.) Select "Invisible"
Boom. You're done.

3If this applies to the whole document, just go to the Document menu, click Document Options > Barlines and untick the box that says "display all barlines".– user19146May 8 '16 at 17:00

@alephzero Correct, you can also accomplish it by ctrl + A and following my directions, or you can do it by creating and applying a staff style. May 8 '16 at 21:03
