Here the description of the strange behavior:
- open one score containing a multi-staff system (for example 4 staves)
- select (double-click) one of the barlines of the top most staff
- extend it to the lower staff
- click somewhere else so that all the barlines are connected between the staves (as expected).
- go to Edit->Instruments and change visibility of the lower staff (as example, make it invisible)
- then, again, go to Edit->Instruments and change visibility of same lower staff (put it as visible again)
- Unexpected behavior: the cross staff barlines is gone, no more extended to the last staff (of which I switched off an on visibility)
- Unexpected behavior: trying now to connect barlines to the lower staff, no more work automatically connecting all bars, but only the single bar at the time.
