Claves

When I add the claves to a piece, the note is deposited and then the cursor returns to the beginning of the piece.

How are you "depositing" the note?
In reply to Unable to reproduce. How are by David Bolton
I'm depositing the note by adding the clave part to the score, opening the drum pallette, selecting the duration and place for the note and double clicking on it.
If I drag the note from the pallette, the program crashes.
Do you have another suggestion?

See the drum notation instructions I added yesterday for Doink1212. It is kind of confusing right now since the drum palette doesn't work like other palettes. Instead it works like the Note Input toolbar. Click on an item in the drum palette (such as snare) and then click on the staff.
Drum notation in MuseScore is still a work in progress. Version 0.9.4 is the first to support input via mouse. Hopefully future versions will more stable and easier to use.
I am running 0.9.5 r1598 on Ubuntu
When I added the Claves to my percussion piece it would not input notes. While in note edit mode, any combination or type of notes would not be placed onto the score on, below or above the claves line. I ran into the same issue on the cymbals, so i am willing to bet it is probably everything with the drum line.
I went in the properties menus and tried fixing things but to no avail.

Doink1212,
Drum notation via mouse is available for the first time in versions 0.9.4 or later but it is a little tricky since it works differently from other types of notation. See drum notation in the handbook for details.

I have mastered notating drums, so thanks for the directions.
I do encourage facilitating adding the drum note via a double-click on the appropriate drum - it would be so much easier. Perhaps this is very difficult to program.

When I tried to input notes the way you, and the handbook described on version .9.5 r 1598 I got a program crash and submitted the report
(this time I was using Win XP)
It would be much easier if drum input was the same as normal staff input, just automatically put drum heads on the notes, and even then that isn't needed, as drummer are used to all kinds of notation. I just want to put notes into the staff and note need to learn a new system. I know there is probably some code based obstruction to this, but it would make life simpler, especially in the cases of single line percussion (cymbals, claves, snare, etc).

Doink1212,
Do you remember the steps that caused the crash? If so please report them on the forum. The crash report are actually a Windows feature. The submissions in this case do not contain any useful information and actually go to Microsoft instead of the MuseScore development team.
I agree that drum input would be much easier if it was the same as normal staff input.
