Formatted Title on every part

If I format the song title on the first page of the score (ex. Change the font, change the size etc.) how can I get it to show up that way on page one of all of the parts? Right now I have to go to each part and reformat the title on every page one.

Hi @pfmusician, from your description it seems that you edited (format) the title directly on the layout. This is a local change and will create a page overrides (which should be avoided).

To avoid this it is generally recommended to edit the Page Template itself if you need different frames, or frames positioning or different/new tokens etc…(You have, for the Full Score, a First page template, for the first page, and a Default page template for subsequent pages. The same is for the Parts.)

In your case, instead I would suggest to adjust the settings of the Paragraph Style>Title that you can find in menu Library. This will automatically apply to all tokens that use that particular Paragraph Style (for example the Title tokens that live in the Full Score First page template and in Part First page template). For the Title Paragraph Style you can also for example set different sizes for Score and Parts.
