That's the wrong way to set this up for measure expressions, you will
have to use staff lists. You should always have all staves set up to
display expressions, and use the options when creating a new staff list
(accessible when you assign new measure expressions by hand, not using a
metatool, or from the context menu when you right-click on the
expression handle). There are separate columns for parts and score.
Well, as they say "learn something new every day!" Guess I can go back
to bed now that I've learned my something new for today.
It will definitely take a major shift in my working methods, but I am
glad to know how to accomplish what I was hoping for.
Under the Document menu there is an option "Display Expressions and
Repeats in Parts" which I have checked.
This is called "..._for_ Parts", and it is for displaying the
expressions as though you were viewing the parts, it should be
unchecked! It is simply for checking how things _would_ look in the
parts. This menu item confused me for years...
To be truthful, I hadn't noticed it until just now, so it has only
confused me for a single morning. But I do see now how it's supposed to
work and now I can take tomorrow off since I've already learned TWO new
things for today!
Hope this helps, let us know if you need further instructions.
Thank you for pointing out the proper method for doing this -- I should
be all set with this from now on.
