Toggling the "Visible" property of a bar doesn't have any effect until the score is saved

If you select a bar, right click, and select bar properties, turning "Visible" on or off has no effect until you save the score (there's probably other things that trigger it too, but saving is the most repeatable I have found).

Confirmed. See #282819: The "visible" checkbox inside bar properties doe not produce effect unless the page is redrawn . FWIW, it is any operation that forces a full relayout of the score, save does happen to be one of those.
