Title page moved in other parts tabs
I arranged a trumpet solo with piano accompaniment. I then used "parts" to create the separate trumpet and piano tabs as well. Later, I wanted to create a title page. I added a vertical frame above the title frame on my main tab, used a page break to make that vertical frame be on the first page, sized it to fill the page, and filled it with my title page text. That worked very well on that tab, but on the other tabs, that vertical frame was placed at the bottom of the last page of music and was shrunken down. When I enlarged that frame on those tabs, it created a last page for it to be on. Why isn't it still on the first page as it is in the main tab?

Delete Parts, regenerate.
Good question, but it seems best to generate parts after the main score is entered.
Looks like a bug to me (and I can reproduce), feel free to report in the issue tracker
I'm not sure what is going on but agree it seems like a bug. In general, though, you'd probably have been better not adding a title page before the existing title frame, but simply turning the existing title frame into the title page. Then if you still want an additional frame after that, add one there (insert before first measure).

Thank you, Marc. That worked very well. I did that in my main score page. But then it turned out that I had to go to the separate tabs and resize the title frame on each to be large enough for it to create its own page. Very small difficulty to get it to work correctly. Thank you again!

If you size the title frame first, then generate the parts, it should work. And part generation would normally be done towards the end anyhow. But then, probably the method you used would alsi have worked had you waited until later to generate parts.
BTW, instead of resizing the frame, you could simply add a page break to it. But resizing can have other advantages to, like allowing for easy centering, etc.

Thanks again. But to be clear, I DID use a page break on the main score tab, but that somehow didn't translate to the other parts.
I know that the best overall solution is to not generate the parts until after I've done everything else (or as the first reply I got from someone else said, to eliminate the parts, make the title page, and then regenerate the parts.) I just thought it was worth letting others know that there is a bug in transferring this from one part to another afterwards.

Page breaks indeed do not propagate between score and parts and this is by design

Yes. Thank you. I am glad for THAT "by design" feature. My original problem was not with that, but with the fact that the frame I put at the front of everything on the main tab was at the END of everything on the other parts.

Which pretty clearly is a bug and should get reported in the issue tracker
