Cannot add a double barline before multi-measure rest at the start of staff.
Couldn't find anyone else reporting this. To reproduce, create a new score with "Barline at start of single staff" and "Multi measure rests" turned on. Then highlight the barline before a multi-measure rest, and click on "Double barline" from the barline pallette. Nothing happens. Pre-existing double barlines at the start of single staffs with "Multi measure rests" turned off also disappear when MMRs are turned on if before what would be a MMR.

Interesting.
But I am not sure, if issue is single barline on mmr, or possibility to add special barline to the begining of the system.
Do You have some example(s) of real world score(s) having this?
BTW. same happens on multistaff score, where begin barline is by default.

It's fairly common on jazz lead sheets, especially Real Book. I still use them in individual parts for scores to help the eye know where to go next, or if someone gets lost, they know the best section to come back in. It seems like this is a new issue, because I have some sheets from August 2024 that have double bars before an MMR, and I don't recall having to do anything special to make them. Now also, when I remove the existing double bar, I can't add it back. (See the Tuba part.)
