New/learning BiaB user. One thing about Bar Settings is, at least to me, confusing/non-intuitive.

If I make a change to a bar, I'd expect that change to show in subsequent bars as well, but it does not.

Example:
In bar 1 I mute the guitar.
In bar 2, if I open the bar settings (F5), I'd expect the guitar to show "Mute" (although maybe "Muted" would be more accurate?).

I realize the dialog says "Instrument Changes at This Bar", so, technically, the guitar has not "changed" at bar 2. But it is in a different state than the dialog visually presents (at least to me).

I could see it really become confusing if there were many changes in bar 1 (guitar muted, vocals come in, piano fades, etc.) - and bar 2 settings showed nothing?!

I know you can use "Print Summary" to see all changes, but it would be much easier/quicker if I could see the state of each instrument on any particular bar.

Am I missing a setting?
