Bar not copied when some notes are shifted to second staff
I have a measure where some notes in the second voice are shifted from treble staff to bass staffs such that the bar applies to notes in both staffs. When the measure is copied and pasted the bar is not copied for notes where the bar would have some notes in both staffs but works okay if the notes are on same sfaff . The bar had to be created manually after the paste. Neither copy/paste or highlighting both staffs and using shortcut R worked. In the image below the bar that was not copied was for the second voice in the right half of the measure. See image file.

Those notes still "belong" to the upper staff. The cross staff feature just makes them appear on the lower staff.

That is not an issue. The issue is there should be two sets of bared notes in each staff, a few of which have note heads in the other staff as the are shifted. When all measures are selected and you do a copy and paste the bar for the notes with shifted note heads is not created with the paste and has to be done manually.

I might be missing something. But I recreated your measure and some notes in a measure on either side of it. Then C+P the three measures. It worked fine.
It would help if we had a page of your score that has the problem. Although you are missing an augmentation dot.

So given that you had no issue with a clean score I opened a new clean score. I then copied from my original and the pasted measures did not display the bars completely. I then manually added the bars to the copied measure. At this point I did a copy and paste with the corrected measures and there was no issue. However if I do a copy and paste in my original score, the bars do not completely fill out even if I manually add them in before copying. So while this is a curiosity, since it is not reproducible from scratch I am willing to accept that there is some corruption in the original but since there is a work around, not going to drag this further.
