Missing barline at start of staves MS3
This is a problem I keep running into. Whenever I try to add a double barline at the start of a staff, the beginning barline for the uppermost staff disappears. This even occurs when adding double barlines to single-staff music.
Recreate:
1. Create score with multiple staves on MS3
2. Add a double barline to the starting barline of any staff
Result: The uppermost staff will completely lose the starting barline while lower staves will gain the double barline.
With single staff:
1. Create score with single staff on MS3
2. Check "Barline at start of single staff" in Style - Barlines
3. Add a double barline to the starting barline of any staff.
Result: The barline at start of that staff will be missing.

I believe the barline at the start of a system is always a single barline. It is dealt with separately from other barlines as it is system generated. Similar issue exists or existed with making such a barline (for more than one instrument) invisible

On jazz sheets, it's actually common to have a double barline at the start of a system. It's usually done whenever there's a new section, usually accompanied by a letter name/rehearsal mark, and a double barline at the end of the last system.

It sure isn't a bug then, but rather a missing feature.
In combination with a bug that makes it appear as is we'd allow for that, that bug seems new with 3.0, the feature is missing in 2.x too though

Really? I don't have my laptop with me, but I don't remember running into this issue in MS2. I made quite a few lead sheets on there...

Open this with MS2 first. MS3 will lose the treble clef barline.

Interesting. End barline does not wothk there (not that it would make any sense, jus wondering why), just normal, dashed, dotted and double baline, none of the others, so there seems to be some special casing going on.
Feel free to open an issue in the issue tracker for this

@ Abejorro97, try this:
Click the barline;
Double click the double barline in the palette;
Save;
Reopen...
is that what you were trying to achieve?

Huh that actually works. Unsatisfying before saving, but it works.
