Description
When there is a glissando that occurs across a line break, instead of behaving like a slur and splitting up nicely, it will be naughty and jump to the next line and extend to the infinities. This is only related to the display and does not corrupt the gilss, as it behaves again when the line break is adjusted so that the two measures are juxtaposed.
One idea that would temporarily solve this problem (and would be very useful otherwise) is an option in the "breaks and spacers" palette that binds two measures together, so either both of the measures must jump to the next line, or they both must stay on the same line. Maybe this would be easier? (It can't be good notation practice to put them on separate lines anyway.)
Confirmed using r. 2451 nightly, Windows XP
Glissandos across line breaks are normal. Your first suggestion was better: MuseScore should make them split across the line break similar to slurs. Attached is a screenshot of a glissando across a line break in Finale.
A Glissando over a page or line break does this:
Was this ever resolved? I am having the same issue now (V. 0.9.6.3 R. 3507, running on Mac OS X)
eranmagen, when this issue is resolved the status will change from "active" to "fixed" and eventually to "closed". As you can see it is still "active" at the moment.
Just registering interest in this - it is on my top 10 list of "major" bugs in 1.0
I can't even get gliss to work at all! Though where I want it is over a measure break. ??? I have version 0.9.6.3. I've tried dragging the different gliss symbols from the palette to either of the two notes, choosing either of the two notes and double clicking.... zilch. How is this supposed to work?
Hey Nicky, the forums are the best place with a question like that but have you checked out the handbook? http://musescore.org/en/handbook/arpeggio-and-glissando
Also it would be wise to update to 1.0.
This glissando-over-line-break bug is almost a deal breaker for me, and it will be when I need to actually present some of my music to people, I hope somebody will get on to it soon.
This happens to me when a bar with a glissando is on the end of a system.

You can fix it temporarily by reducing or increasing the bar's lenght to the next system. Just click on it and press "{"

Hi,
I use version 1.1 and have this problem too. I have found the only solution is to make sure both measures are on the same line. This often messes up my lay-out, and sometimes it's even virtually impossible, as in this piece with a lot of glissando's between multiple measures:

Good luck fixing this. I also believe it should be able to have the glissando split, like with a slur.
