Breath mark does not paste at a proper position
When a G-clef vocal stave is copied and pasted onto a F-clef stave, the breath mark doesn't position properly. (In the attached figure, the notes on the F-clef stave have been moved to proper positions after pasting, but not yet the breath mark.)

I can't reproduce, please provide a sample score and exact steps

Hi. Thank you for looking into it. I constantly had this problem, until today! As you say, however, it seems that I can't reproduce the problem at all now. I really wonder what happened now, but, only thing I can think of as a possible reason is that I upgraded MuseScore to the most latest version today (OS: macOS High Sierra (10.13), Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore version (64-bit): 3.5.2.312126096, revision: 465e7b6 However, I have no way to prove whether that is relevant or not.

What version where you using before?

I have no way to find out the previous version number, but I believe that that was the previous "latest" version. However, I noticed something else. The wrong position of the copied breath mark is the same as the 2nd voice breath mark position. That is, if I try to add a breath mark to the 2nd voice, it goes to the middle of the stave, despite that I wanted it to go to the below of the stave. That is the same position of the breath mark when a breath mark was copied from a stave to another stave (e.g., from Soprano to Alto) in the previous version (assuming that version had a bug). Of course, I understand that putting a breath mark for the 2nd (or 3rd, etc.) is an uncommon act. However, there are times that is called for. For example, at times, the 1st voice may have a rest (so that it does not require a breath mark before the next phrase), whereas the 2nd voice has no rest. So a breath mark is needed. Although this is the correct behaviour, I felt it odd at first, because this was the same error I experienced when I copied one stave to another. If I hazard a guess, when a stave was copied and pasted, the breath mark for 1st voice was pasted to the 2nd voice position for some reason. As I said, it seems that this error does not occur anymore.

P.S. The breath mark for the 2nd voice is written as upside-down V (attachment-1), but MuseScore can't do it (attachment-2). Could this be another feature request?
