Versions 3.5 and 3.6 crash when I try to SAVE after typing in lyrics

• Jan 27, 2021 - 13:37

I am trying to add lyrics to Shelia Lee's arrangement of Happy. I type in some text and try to save it and Musescore crashes. I have gone back and forth between Musescore versions, and it happens under both versions 3.5 and 3.6. I have also try to reboot and I also tried it on a different computer. Attached is the Musescore file. Is it a bug, or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance,
Nick

Confirmed, for 3.5.2amd 3.6.0 so far.
If saving first, then adding lyrics, there's no crash, for some reason?!?

Firing up the latest development build in a debugger...

A bit weird for now (a clue: XML import) before understanding what is exactly the trigger among the symbols involved (or it's a whole)
Indeed, for some reasons, by removing all different symbols of Repeats & Jumps (Segno, measure 18, and Codas, measures 65/66, To Coda, measure 33, and DS al Coda etc. measures 50/51), it works again: 1happy-all parts.mscz

EDIT: In addition, exporting in xml format seems to be a good cleanup: happy-all parts.mxl

I did save first yesterday (without lyrics) and came back today to add lyrics and I could not because of crashes. What did work was that I had another arrangement with words and I opened them up side by side and copied the words from the one with words to Shelia's arrangement. I did this for some words and entered other words just to see what would happen and I could. So, I was able to get the lyrics entered.

It may help to know how I created the "all parts" .mscz file. I read Shelia's separate pdf's for each part into Audiveris and created .xml files for each part. Then I cleaned each .xml file up and saved it as a .mscz file for each part. I then made a copy of 1st part .mscz file and renamed it "all parts" and then copied and pasted each part into a separate stave of the "all parts" .mscz file. This procedure may have caused the problem since I have not had this problem before.

I wanted to thank you for responding to me,
Nick
