Force show added staff

Dear all,
I am editing four piano pieces in the same file/project. In the fourth piano piece, I needed to add a staff to write the bass notes. I am working on the layout and only have two pages left to finish editing, however, I am not able to make the third staff appear in all systems. I have watched several videos, but I have not gotten the answer I need.

Please see the files added: in the first (measure9), the third staff appears correctly, in the second (measure32) I show where I want the third staff to appear again.

Note that when I use Gallery View, I can see the third staff.

Thanks for your help!


Dorico can only change the number of staves at the start of a system. Put a system break at bar 32 and it will show starting at the next system.

Edit: I was thinking Divisi. If you added by add staff below, it should work mid system. I’d have to see the file to determine the cause.

Hi Craig, thanks for the quick reply.
See attached file. I need to add the third system from page 8.
Best wishes,

The notes are already written (See Gallery View, flow 4, measure 32).

I just tried this but nothing changed. See image.

The problem is that at bar 32, you have a manual staff visibility change on the frame break that is hiding the third staff. Instead of using a manual staff visibility change at that point, use Remove Staff to remove that staff at that point, then when you want it to reappear again, select the rest at the start of bar 32 in the left-hand piano staff, and use Add Staff Below to make the staff reappear at that point.

Hi @Heber_Schuenemann, I see a staff visibility setting in bar 17 that hides the staff c)

Thank you very much you all! It worked!
