[Regression] Extra Bar Line appears before preambles at a new staff with repeat sign

Hi, after updating Dorico to 6.2 and opening a semi recent project, I noticed a bug where an extra bar line appears before the clef of an added staff (via the staff tool) with a repeat sign and having the show preamble option selected.

Before:

Now after update to Dorico 6.2:

Reproduction Steps:

I was able to reproduce the issue with a new sample project:

  1. Add a new staff above or below an existing staff at the first beat of a bar (not the first bar).
  2. Add a repeat sign to that bar
  3. Click the staff flag and check Show Preambles.
    Notice the extra line:

Meanwhile, you can hide it by selecting the repeat barline, and in Engrave Mode, set “Barline at end of System” to None.

Thanks! I don’t quite get what “Barline at end of system” implies here but grateful that there is a workaround! :smiley:

It’s a trick by © @jesele :slight_smile:
I already had to use it in cases looking a bit like yours.

Example (and edit: it works in Write Mode as well):
