Hi. Thank you in advance for reading. I created a score in which there are two instruments per system (i.e. trumpets 1 & 2), and I used the "specify voicing" tool to create separate parts for each. I used two layers for each instrument, and set up layer 1 for the existing part and created a new part that shows layer 2 only.
The thing is, when I use the one-bar repeat staff style, it only appears on the first instrument part (layer 1), but not on the second one. I tried editing the staff style and I can switch it between each layer, but I can't make it to show on both parts. It either shows on the first instrument by default, or changes to the second one if I change the default setting of layer 1 for alternate notation to layer 2. I appreciate your assistance with this issue. Thank you again!

I can make it work by, not using “Specify Voicing”, but instead using custom staff styles.
The trick is that staff styles can be different in the score and in different parts.
Staff style for Trumpet 1 (entered in Layer 1):
Normal Notation: Layer 1 (in Other Layers, not showing Notes)
Staff style for Trumpet 2 (entered in Layer 2):
Normal Notation: Layer 2 (in Other Layers, not showing Notes)
