I see. Just out of curiosity can this ever be over-ridden by clicking on the first bar, 'bar settings' and choosing a different style? Which I think is what I did. I remember getting a pop-up error, I think it said something to the effect of what you said.

By the way, there are styles (chosen from the Style button or F5), and there are sub styles. The part markers select sub styles, although the line is now blurred in version 2014. If you have 2014, right-click on a part marker to bring up a menu allowing you to define more sub styles such as C & D, then E & F etc.


I have 2011.
I understand the difference between styles and substyles.
If I understand correctly, for every style there are what, two substyles? Do they have more now?

That's why it's important that not only the correct style plays at each bar but the correct substyle as well.
