Dennis,
So thought I too. There's some logic in that. But it turns out, the
way things are set up now, that creating the parts is a simple matter
that takes only a minute or two, and it is better done after the
score is complete. It has taken me a while to get my mind around
this, because I thought that creating empty parts would save time in
the long run, only to find that my logic was not in line with how the
new system operates. Again, I now find it quick and easy to create
the parts as a last step, just as I used to.
What is lost, as long as the parts remain linked, is the easy method
of using one part as a layout template for others like it. It now
takes me at least twice as long to lay out my parts. On the other
hand, I have already made a few corrections in a score that showed up
immediately in all parts (already created ones), and that was pretty
cool.

expect the same with linked parts?
Simply because it seemed only logical, when setting up a given
template, to include the parts you're going to need in the
template. After all, if you're doing orchestral work, and have many
parts, the names of which you have to change, from what I
understand, if you don't want them called Part1, etc., it's much
easier to do it once in the template than for each score.
