Staff grouping oddity in Galley View

I have a brass section grouped correctly in Page View, but it doesn’t carry into Galley view. Could it be related to the fact that I am condensing my Trombone 3 and Tuba in the printable score?


Galley view never shows condensing.

Right., but my point is, I want to see the bracketing. In my WW and strings, for example, the brackets carry into Galley View. It’s only my brass that it doesn’t

@D.Galbraith
I tried, and doesn’t seem that condensing tromb. 3 and tuba causes this (see screenshots). It is something else, going on, probably related to manual bracketing made before and after condensing.
(I made the manual secondary bracket changes before condensing)

Can you share your file (a cut-down version that shows this issue)?

Yes, I would love for you to have a look at this file. It’s not a huge deal, as the printing score looks fine, but it does aid in the writing process to have the staves’ barlines connected.

Hi @D.Galbraith, here a short video with the workflow. I deactivated condensing first, to polish the bracketing, and then reactivated condensing (you have an interesting setup, by the way: is there a reason why you didn’t choose the approach of separate players with condensing, and presumably decided to use voices for those like flute, clarinet, trumpet 1&2 etc…?).

I hope this is what you needed. I attach also the corrected file, just in case:

Christian, sir, I am amazed at your generosity. Thank you so much for that input. Problem fixed! I’m developing our master template (previously in Finale) into Dorico.

You are very welcome @D.Galbraith.
