In a piece for tenor with piano accompaniment the barlines of the piano part do not continue from one staff to the other, which is not normal. I have pressed the "normal" button but nothing happens. Can someone tell me how to make the piano barlines continuous over the two staves? Thank you.

Click the top of a barline in the LH staff and drag it up to the RH staff. (It should show a small box (handle) when you have clicked in the correct place.

Piano staves are normally produced already joined. Did you create this one from two separate bass/treble staves.

Thank you. The separate barlines must have been introduced accidentally. Everything is good now!
