Special uses of invisbar

The "invisbar" can be used to force Mup into doing something in the middle of a bar that it normally would allow to happen only at a bar line. Suppose, for example, you wish to place a rehearsal letter in the middle of a measure. This could be accomplished as follows:

// assume we are in 4/4 time, but want
// a rehearsal letter by count 3
// of the measure

// do first part of measure and use "space"
// for last part so time values will add up
// properly to a full measure
1: 4c;d;2s;

// put in invisible bar with rehearsal letter
invisbar rehearsal let

// now do the last half of the measure,
// this time with space at the beginning
1: 2s;4e;c;
bar
