Project
1 - Create a project with one instrument
2 - Use different time signatures - 4/4, then 2/4, then 3/4, then 4/4 again and so on
3 - Create two sheets where 1 sheet is only voice 1 of the instrument and 1 sheet is only voice 2 of the instrument
4 - All time signature changes will only be shown in voice 1, no markings in voice 2
5 - safe it and the file will be corrupt
6 - Spend a lot of time trying to fix it but miserably fail

Indeed, known issue, so duplicate of : #291688: Time signature change doesn't appear in parts which don't have voice 1
Confirmed
Step 3, "sheets" means "parts", and it seems those that do not contain voice 1 of the master score trigger the bug
This score obviously has problems that need to be addressed by the programmers. We need more information. Can you give use the steps you used to create this score. I see you created the part twice, one has the time signatures and one doesn't. In your steps tells us something like:
created the score
created first trombone part
added time signatures to (the score or the part)
created second trombone part
Please tell us the order you did these steps and where you added the time signatures so we can reproduce the problem and fix it. I also changed the other fields to appropriate values for this report.
fixed the options, I guess others know how you did this.
...and severity
I see it as a blocker, the score becomes corrupt beyond repair
The steps given were quite clear, I could immediately reproduce it
In reply to This score obviously has… by mike320
I did what I described in the beginning, the signatures were added in the score. Then the parts were created. Either way, it doesn't work.
You can recover the score: Remove parts. Then, in score, apply full measure rests : Ctrl + A and Shift/Ctrl + Del.
Not if it contains notes already
In reply to Not if it contains notes… by Jojo-Schmitz
Sure? Could you share a sample score where applying full measure rests doesn't fix the corruption in main score?
Why? Select all, Del surely deletes not only excess rests, but all rests and notes, and replaces them with full measure rests
Full measure rests replaces notes? (so not Del, but Shift/Ctlr + Del)
See: one sample with notes: fanfare2.mscz
After applying full measure rests, a part of corruption (depending configuration notes/measures) is eliminated but, unfortunately, not entirely: fanfare3.mscz
Ctrl Del removes everthing includomg the measures
Not Ctrl + Del.
But Ctrl + Shift + Del
Just Del is enough here, to delete everything and replace with full measure rests, as long as there are no pickup measures
Well, Del remove notes, not Ctrl + Shift + Del.
I give up. Nevermind.
And not a blocker (not score beyond repair). With some corruption eventually, but as some other scores without this voice-part feature.
