Bar "lines" different in full score to 'parts'
Oh dear, twice in one evening...
My full score did have a repeat section (to enable a longer drum solo) but it isn't working out in rehearsal. So back to the drawing board and I took out the repeat 'barring' on my score and instead added double-bar lines. These can be seen on the "Full score " attachment. However the change is not being made in the parts score (I have attached the Alto1 part but its the same in them all). Curiously, 8 bars later I obviously took out 'that' repeat bar and the same problem does not occur! (see the Alto 1 attachment).
Thoughts anyone?

Could you attach the score here? There may be some kind of corruption affecting it.

Hi here is the MSCZ of the full score (check bar 69 where the double bar is - as it should be) and the alto 1 part (bar 69 -which still contains the remnants on the repeat sign)
Hope this help clarify

Wow, this is super weird, and it's way beyond me. Here's the insane part: in the main score, click on the double bar at 69 (on any staff) and press [Delete], and it turns into a repeat sign—but only on that one staff. It's like there are two different layers of barlines, and which one is on top depends on whether you're in the score or a part. This definitely ought to be impossible, and I'm afraid I don't have the expertise to help.

That repeat bar is in all the parts, but not the main score.
Deleting it from one part makes it go away from all parts, and without a bad effrect to the double bar in the main score or the parts, as far as I can see
Yor score has not gotten created with 2.0.2, but probabbly 2.0.1 (at the score's creation date MuseScore 2.0.2 hadn't been released) so this may be the cause for this 'corruption'?

Thanks for the various replies.
Jojo how is that possible as the score is supposed to be dynamically linked to the parts - from when MScore 2.0 first made an appearance? Whatever the possible answer to that, thank you for coming up with a workaround. Tho' it's slightly worrying that editing a score in a 'later' version - as I did -can mess up your score!
There is another problem going on with the same score.
I wrote about it here:
https://musescore.org/en/node/93541
but no one has yet come up with a solution. Basically, in the full score, the guitar part looks as it should (go to bar 11 for first appearance). However in the guitar chart, the music is several octaves too high. Changing the guitar chart so that it will look correctly for the guitarist drops the guitar in the full score by several octaves. The dynamic linking working "as it should".... sort of. any thoughts?

I have now idea why it happened, I only guessed it might have to do with some differenence between 2.0.1 and 2.0.2, or with some bug fixed in the latter.
See also my reply in that other thread, again no idea why, but easy to fix

But the repeat bar is in the main score. It's just got a plain double bar on top of it somehow. Like I said, delete the double bar from the main score, and it reveals the repeat sign beneath it.

not for me? If I delete the double barline in measure 69 of the main score, a normal barlibe appears, and in the parts the start repeat barline disappears

Is it possible this score was edited with an experimental pre-release build? I recall errors similar to what we see here being present in some nightly builds from a year or two ago. Specifically, bad interactions betwene barline types, parts, and multimeasure mests. As far as I know, all such bugs were fixed long before the release fo 2.0, but a score edited with one of those experimental versions might well have been corrupted in this way.
If that is not the case and this score was only ever edited with an officially released version of MuseScore, we'd definitely love to udnerstand how this happened - how the score got into this state.
Anyhow, probably the best way to uncorrupt it now would be to delete the double bar - returning all barlines at that measure to normal - then re-add it. This appears to work. If you later see problems down the line, you might try repeating this but first going to each part and turning off multimeasure rests (press "M").

Hi Marc,
I didn't start the arrangement until August 2015. So I'm guessing it was made in MScore 2.01 if 2.02 came out after this date.
The suggestion that I delete the repeat bar at bar 69 in the Alto 1 part HAS deleted it for every other instrument...which is weird but hey, it worked and DIDN'T affect the full score.
Thanks for your time as always
