Add bars/time signature

dear all,

i’m trying to insert bars (shift b) and a pop up window says: “to add bars, first add a time signature…”

but there are already time signature.

i’ve repeated it (4/4) in case some hidden X or whatever would cause problem, but unsucccessfully.

Has anyone an idea where my problem lies?

here the score:

Hi @francois.sarhan, can you please upload a Dorico project file that shows this issue?

20200225-FOX-1.dorico (1,1 Mo)

here it is

please note that it s a xml file from finale.

If you turn on View->Signposts, you can see all the hidden open time signatures.
Under Preferences->MusicXML I have everything unticked except Text Items and Import other -technical-playing-techniques.
