I see this has been raised before, and is intentional behavior, but I just wanted to be clear. When typesetting band marches, I have a \rehearsalMarks definition that includes double bars as needed. I define all the parts in a single file (for example, MaineFestival.ly) and then have multiple part files (MFestClar1.ly) and score files (MFestScore.ly). In MFestClar1.ly, I will include both \rehearsalMarks and \clarinetOne, and get the bars as specified. In MFestScore.ly, I will only include \rehearsalMarks with the \fluteOne staff, and the bars carry down through all the other staves.
Now, with the advent of \section, I thought I could do this the same way. It worked fine for the Clar1 part, but when I tried the score, I found that the \section double bars only appeared in the flute staff where they were included, and did not carry down to the cornet staff where I had the actual music that I had put in up to this point. So, should I basically give up on \section? Should I include it in the individual parts, instead of relying on the \rehearsalMarks definition? Or am I missing a point somewhere? Thanks!
