Measure number size in parts is bugged
Measure number size in parts are a bit buggy. I'm trying to change measure number size in parts, but it doesn't want to save and reverts back to what the score size is set to. BUT, it's inconsistent. It differs whether you have only one part created, or multiple parts created. I haven't been able to pinpoint where it goes wrong exactly. All l'm fairly certain of is that measure number size in parts should not be linked to the score.
I've uploaded a test score to mess with this on, but unfortunately, I can't consistently pinpoint what the problem is exactly. When you have one part, it seems like measure numbers are linked to the score. But, when there is more than one part, this changes in more ways than one. I've tried changing the size in score only, in both score and part, in part only... I've tried resetting measure number size to program default (whatever is original default style size before you first change it).
This need more info than I'm willing to look into at this time. Maybe I'll give it another shot sometime soon, but I'm rather confused from trying right now. For a workaround, I just save the part as a separate file and work on it like a score.

Just a doubt: does it change anything if you save after every change to the Parts?
E.g.: Trumpet Part, I apply changes and save;
Piano Part, I apply changes and save and so on...

I apologize. The first paragraph should include ‘after saving and reloading.’
I think I’ll make a video soon showing what the issue is. That seems easier for me than typing it out.
Ok, I think I narrowed it down. I don't think the bug has anything to do with whether you have 1 part, or more than 1 part as I originally thought. It actually has to do with what the program has as a default number for measure number sizes. Please watch my video here to understand what I mean: https://youtu.be/YBnji7NTDGg

Extract the Parts, select the measure numbers (all similar elements) from Inspector increase the font and save.
Repeat for the other parts.
Does that change anything?

Actually, that fixes the problem. That method allows the measure numbers in the parts to remain at a size of 8. So, using inspector is not a bad workaround. But, changing it in the style menu would be faster if it worked correctly, so that still needs to be fixed.

Issue created #288827: When measure number size in part is set to 8 in style menu, size resets to score.
