Allowed values:
| Value | Description |

| Barlines are only connected within staves that correspond to the same MNX part. For example, piano music with a grand staff (two staves) will generally connect the two staves with a shared barline. This behaves the same as "individual" except for MNX parts that have a "staves" value greater than 1. ![]() |
