Hello. New user of Dorico Elements 5.
I’ve imported an xml score of classical guitar and flute. It’s mostly fine except the barre lines had to be redone. My process has been Shift-p, type full barre, fix the line position then add a suffix to indicate the fret number.
But then I noticed the suffix doesn’t show on the instrument part. I’ve reproduced it in the attached one bar project. How can I get the guitar part to show the suffix. I know I can edit it on the part, but I’ve got a hundred of them.
Thanks

Hi Geo and welcome to the forum!
The setting you’re referring to is a property. I’ve opened your file and here’s the problem :
Set this to Globally, and every property you’ll modify will be propagated to all layouts.
This works before the fact. But you can correct this on the files that exhibit the same problem by selecting those playing techniques (I’d suggest selecting one and pressing shift-cmd-A which is Select More, press it three times to select all those playing techniques from that flow) and Edit menu>Propagate Properties.
Hope it helps!
