There is currently no way within MuseScore to retrieve the SMuFL id for a musical symbol. This would be helpful to allow us to insert said symbols into text fields (such as line start text) using the <sym> tag syntax.
Fix version
3.6.1

Seems an easy one-line fix. Question is just how exactly to represent it.
Something like this?
yes, that is a start, or maybe right click / properties. Or maybe with a way to select and copy. But that is definetely already an improvement
Shows the translated names for those that have one as a bonus.
Getting is selectable or as a property would be wonderful, but much (?) more involved.
The translation part is something we should do anyhow, amy might be able to 'sneak' into 3.6.1 ;-)

Amazing!! thanks Jojo. I hope to see it rolled out in next version
It helps that I had a need for that myself and found it quite cumbersome to have to scan the sources just for that ;-)
I have made a copy option in the right click menu, like this:
The question is: How shall we name the option? Is "Copy SMuFL Symbol Code" clear enough?
