In the process of creating your document, you may have added or dragged staves between existing staves. Such changes could have unexpected results, especially concerning the appearance of your barlines. If a barline doesn’t appear to be drawn correctly, you can usually solve the problem with this technique. If you keep Auto Sort Staves turned on, the barline display should save you these steps. See Auto Sort Staves in the Staff menu.

To correct barline display

1. Click the Staff tool . The Staff menu appears.
2. Choose Staff > Sort Staves to restore their appearance, based on the new staff order.
