Bar repeat group number: changing size erases staff lines

A client wants me to use Petaluma. There are some 4-bar repeats. I switched the font with “Use font’s recommended engraving options” checked. Now I find the 4 is too large. Not a Font Style, not a Paragraph Style, not an engraving pref … I finally found it in Music Symbols. But when I try scaling the giant 4 in the symbol editor, it then erases half of the staff from the start of the system to that point!

Now of course once I went to the trouble of making these screenshots, I found a workaround: Scale the numeral in engrave mode. So I guess this is just a little buglet report.

Thanks for reporting this, Mark. I can reproduce the problem and will make sure it gets fixed in due course.
