When applying the Note Names Plugin to a score, Note Names do not show up.


Comments

Workaround No Yes

Plugins in general don't work well or not at all in MuseScore 3 currently.
For the notenames plugin though there's some cure; named noteheads, as a staff property.

Perhaps the SMuFL folks would be willing to define these as part of the standard and add them to Bravura font. Meanwhile we should probably consider automatically mapping them to the enharmonic equivalents.

Reported version 3.0 4.x-dev

The workaround would be to make it a new upgrade for MuseScore 4 (this should be applied to note heads of every shape)

Workaround No Yes

Maybe if we updated the Named Note Head Features to include the Double Sharp & Flat Symbols (and various other Accidentals too), that'll help.

Reported version 4.x-dev 3.0
Workaround Yes No

We can't change SMuFL, and that doesn't have these noteheads (yet)

Request it there first.

Reported version 3.0 4.x-dev

I have a request to add the Double Sharp & Double Flat Named note heads (as well as all the various accidentals) cause things will get more interesting this way

Regression No Yes

We could also implement that into the Double note Heads as well as all the various shaped note heads for more flexibility.
