Hello all,

It seems there's a problem with the bar numbering when adding ossia staffs. In the full score, I'm seeing these blue lines which seem to show ossia staffs, even if they are only used before this passage. In the parts, the bar numbers seem to be attached to the ossia staff (earlier) and stop being printed afterwards.

How can I find the bar numbers again?

Thanks for all the help and best wishes,
Gabriel

Without knowing which version of Sibelius you have, you can change the position of bar numbers using Text-->Numbering and Bar Numbers-->Show on staves
