Not sure how this one slipped through, or how long it's been the case...

1) load attached score, or create one yourself that includes staff text, dynamics, and/or other text
2) generate parts

Result: in the parts, the text style settings are ignored; all offsets are 0. The result is that everything is too close to the staff.

Here's how it looks in the score:

And in a part:

Lyrics and chord symbols are placed OK (probably because they get special layout), but the rest of the text is not. Check one in the Inspector and you'll see its offset is 0. And yet the style settings in Format / Style / Text Style all check out OK. And if you then add more text, it is styled correctly in the parts. Only pre-existing text is not styled correctly when generating parts.

Thankfully, it fixes itself on reload. Still, it gave me a little bit of a heart attack, and it's not good.
