The actual PR for the improved Implode tool.

Last week

I was mainly working on bug fixes. Biggest one was the tie thing, where ties weren't connected to next note if there was a measure break between them. This was fixed by a big change to the cloneVoice() method. This method does now get the exact start segment (source), destination segment and the tick of the last segment, so the whole clone process is done in the cloneVoice method. This

Hi,
this week I started working on MidiSpanners. That is the functionality I described last week. With this you can let any spanner send midi information. All main modes (switch, continuous, note on event) have been realized. But currently there is no GUI. I also tested this with hairpins, pedal and slurs. Lasconic also proposed we could have a configuration file (most likely in xml) for sounds that would set good defaults for these spanners and would also add MidiActions

Hello,
As mentioned in the last post, this week I worked on implementing the range annotation box, and also added an option to highlight the range annotation. I also looked around at Spanners, and got a feel of how they are being implemented. For the range annotation, I started with implementing a hard coded rectangle around some measures (different from selection, because this persists, whereas selection doesn't). I then extended the implementation to support multiple range annotations, which key off

This was my sixth week working on note entry with MuseScore for Google Summer of Code. In previous weeks I made good progress with the underlying algorithms for the new note entry modes, but I had yet to submit anything for inclusion in MuseScore's main code repository. This week I went back over my work from the previous weeks, tidying and improving the code in preparation for the first pull request.

This week’s summary:

• ToolButtonMenu
• Menu styles

Still to do:

The actual PR for the improved Implode tool.

Last week

I changed cloneVoice() from being an excerpt method to being a score method in edit.cpp and used it in my first attempt for the improved implode tool.
We have had a discussion for this tool here and a big thing is that we have different demands for this tool. So freixas suggested to add a new UI for the different implode/merge options we could have. For me and my project

Hi,
midterm is over and we have to see what will happen in the rest of the time. I think I already reached more than I expected (even though I knew that what I was reaching for was very low to make sure I'll reach that without any hassle).

This week got some new opcodes (I think and hope this will happen for every week from now on!):

• on_hiccN/on_loccN - adds the possibility of playing back samples base on certain

So, yeah. I hate to say this, but I'm thinking that this is the last entry of my blog for at least a while. There is a possibility that this is the last entry in the blog series. Let me say that it was a pleasure blogging. I have enjoyed creating this series however, everything must come to an end eventually.

Looking back at the start from when I was first trying out MuseScore to where I am now, I

Hello,
As mentioned in the last post, I've finished the implementation for the text annotation and begun with the other types this week. Inheriting from Element class was leading to the Text annotation not ending up being drawn, hence we decided to try another approach, with the TextAnnotation class deriving from Text. This solved the problem of the annotation not being drawn. You can find the implementation in this PR : http://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/2687 :

I also enabled layer support for the

This was my fifth week working on note entry with MuseScore for Google Summer of Code. Last week I began to separate the user’s input into different voices to make it look more like sheet music. This week I continued with that task, and took another look at simplifying note durations in an attempt to follow standard rules for the placement of any remaining ties, or when tied notes should be actually be used in favour of dotted notes, according
