Can't get the Percussion legends propagated plus an Engraving suggestion

Title says it all. Percussion legends in the score still do not propagate to the parts from my point of view. Unless I’m mistaken? If I’m not, well, this has been asked for quite a long time so I guess it’s just has been overseen during a lot of updates. No worries, workaround is that we can do this in each separate lay-out but it’s getting cumbersome with large scores and many percussionists of course.

So can anybody help? Am I doing something wrong?

Secondly, a suggestion: it would be nice to have a PercussionLegend token to be able to use in a text box in engraving mode. For instance, to create a frontpage with a “map” for the percussionist explaining his needed set-up.

Hi. Maybe you’re using different layout options for percussion kits in the score and in the parts? If I am not mistaken, percussion legends are available in grid view only since Dorico 6…

As usual, could it be possible to share a cut-down project that exhibits the problem?

You could try the instrumentNames or instrumentList tokens.
