Yes, you would have had to copy the Part Marker along with the bars for BB to start a new line like that.

You can deactivate the Start New Line feature in Prefs -> Display down at the bottom of the Display window if you like. Sometimes I do that when laying out a song and will return it to ON again afterwards in order to simplify that process, or you may just elect to leave that turned OFF all the time, too.

Bear in mind, however, that every time you copy a Part Marker, even one of the same color for the Substyle you are currently "in" -- it will force a Drunm Fill in the previous bar. You may not want that, so you can just click on the part marker several times to turn it back to no part marker at all.

K Quick Copy Method

By simply typing "K" at a bar (followed by Enter key), you can instantly copy the last 8 bars to the current position. By adding additional keys in the K command, you can customize this shortcut (e.g. typing K12,3 would copy from bar 3 for 12 bars to current position). The current position is advanced to the bar beyond the copy. This speeds up song entry!

For example, if you're entering a song that has a repeating section of chords for 8 bars, type in the first 8 bars of chords and then move to bar 9, and then type: k <ENTER>.

The last 8 bars will be copied to bar 9-16, and the cursor will be moved to bar 17, so you're ready to continue with the tune. If you get to bar 25, and would like the chords from 1-8 to be copied to 25-32, type k,1 and this will copy 8 bars from bar 1 to bar 25.

The chords always get copied. The Melody, Soloist, and Lyrics also get copied if these items are set in the Copy Chords and / or melody dialog (Edit | Copy From.. To..).
