Conductors, I learned today, like to see instrument sections in scores. Is there a way (I’m sure there is) to remove the bar lines between sections? Looking at this excerpt, I would like to remove the bar lines in the spaces between the bassoon and clarinets, between the clarinets and saxes, between the trumpets and horns, between the horns and trombones, between the trombones and euphonium, and between the tuba and percussion parts (including the timpani)? It’s something I would like to do prior to publishing this piece. I haven’t found anything yet. Maybe I am asking the wrong question when I search for the solution. Please point me in the right direction to work this out.

Turn Condensing off
Go into Engrave mode
Click on the staff which will be at the top of the connecting barline (eg Clarinet 1)
Ctrl/Cmd-click on the staff which will be at the bottom of the connecting barline (eg Contrabass Clarinet)
Make sure that a notation element in both staves is highlighted (in your example, this would be the rest in the first bar of each of the two instruments), then click on the icon in the left panel which shows two staves connected with a barline
