Actual behavior:
If you hold the Up arrow, the fret number on the top line counts: 10, 11, 12, 13, 0, 0, 0, 0...
Even though the fret number is zero the sounding pitch keeps getting higher.

Expected behavior:
The fret numbers should keep counting incrementally. When you reach the highest fret, both the fret number and the sounding pitch should stay at the maximum.
According to johnnygizmo the highest fret number depends on the instrument but should be around 18-24 (see http://musescore.org/en/node/7803 )

Converse:
If you hold the Down arrow, the fret number on the bottom line should stop at 0 and the sounding pitch should not get any lower.
