1) Create a multimeasure rest bar.
2) Try to change the right side barline style to a double, dotted, dashed or final barline.
3) Notice that the barline remains unchanged.

This occurs on a score as well as in parts. Repeat barline styles seem to work normally.

Confirmed. This didn't work great in 3.0.5 either, but it was possible by applying the new barline directly to the old. Now, that doesn't work, and it produces some day layout if you later turn off multimeasure rests. Investigating/

Workaround is to disable mmrests before adding the barline. Also, while it's technically true that the bug affects scores as well as parts, scores virtually never have mmrests enabled, and it does work fine to add the barline to the score if mmrests are off (that is, it does affect the mmrest in the part correctly).
