The Insert Bars window is opened from the workspace with the following command:

Button	Key	Menu
	Ctrl+Ins	Song-Insert Bars

It allows you to add a batch of new bars to the song at any location.  A song can be a maximum of 999 bars in length.

The bars of a song create its timing structure for the song, so you must select the time signature of the bars you are inserting.

Once a bar is inserted, it retains its time signature until it is deleted, or the meter of the whole song is converted.

Segments at the insert location are automatically extended or created, depending on the track type and the existing segment structure, to accommodate the new bars.

Controls

Number of Bars

Specifies the number of bars to insert in this batch.  It can vary from a single bar to the maximum number of additional bars that will fit in the song.

Time Signature

Specifies the time signature of the new bars, from the list of time signatures available.

Songtrix can handle any number of time signature changes in a song, but all bars in a new batch must be the same.

Bar

Specifies the location in the song where you want to place the new bars.  They will be inserted before the existing bar at this location, pushing it to a higher bar number.

End of Song

Appends the new bars to the end of the song.

OK

Closes the window and inserts the new bars as specified.

Cancel

Returns to the workspace without making any change.
