[JW Lua] Change System Margins after Double barline

[Herbert van Essen]

Hello Jari,

I know you're very busy but this thing is driving me crazy while it must be
very simple.
I try to get a pagebreak after a final barline:

local region = finale.FCMusicRegion()
region:SetCurrentSelection()
selectedmeasures = finale.FCMeasures()
selectedmeasures:LoadRegion(region)


for measure in each(selectedmeasures) do
    if measure.Barline == finale.BARLINE_FINAL
    then
       print ("Double barline found in measure ", measure.ItemNo)
                    local m = finale.FCMeasure(measure.ItemNo +1)
                    --m:Load()
                    m.PageBreak = true
                    m:Save()
        end
end
selectedmeasures:SaveAll()

What am I doing wrong here?

Kind regards,
Herbert
