Help!! When i copy bars that have been formatted as Slash or Rhythmic, it copies all of it in the score, but when i got to Parts the Slash formatting is gone, and i have to reformat all the bars. A real pain. I run 2014.5 on a PC.
thx

This is a known issue, and I have reported it. I am not sure that they will fix it. Anyway, after copying in the score, highlight those measures, right click, and choose to apply the style to score and parts.

An easier and more complete solution is to wait until you have completed the score, then while in the Staff tool, Select All, and choose from the Staff menu "Use selected staff styles in score and parts." You may have to recreate multimeasure rests for the parts, which you can do in one shot.
Please complain about this by opening a tech support ticket. They claim to have fixed this several versions ago, but as you can see, it was not fixed.

Actually, that workaround is useful if all the styles in score and parts are to show in both. Unfortunately, there are some, in some scores, that are unique to either score or part, so just be aware. If that might be the case, best to do it as you go.

I just checked the new MakeMusic forum and saw the official reply about this issue: Regenerate Parts! Wow. That removes any and all formatting. I guess they won't know about the other less invasive workarounds to this bug.

Wow. I guess our input there will be missed.

Hi Zuill,
As entertaining as Adam's answer was, I posted a complaint requesting that the possibly destructive answer be removed, which was done. Sorry to spoil the fun!
