I am trying to create a score for small orchestra, and have encountered a slight problem. I can't get the printed score to follow the convention that bar lines are drawn connecting all the staffs within each section - i.e. woodwind, brass, percussion, strings - but not right through the whole score. Using 'Orchestral' as the type of staff always seems to connect all the staffs in the score, even when I try using the partitions feature. Or am I missing something?
John - you're not missing anything - that's the way it works.
But I agree - wouldn't it be nicer if the barlines and decorated corners were only applied to each partition rather than the whole score.
It would certainly be more readable!
Add it to the wish list, and see if Eric can whip something up by mid-November's release! ;-)

Also Noteworthy is missing braces for orchestral scores to group the woodwinds, brass, and strings.
