Re-pitch mode and ties, chords not working
Hi, guys
So, I'm trying the very handy re-picth mode, and get in to trouble when trying to input chords, using a midi keyboard. See the short youtube clip to see how it behaves.
Is this expected behaviour, or is it a bug? If it's expected - can it be changed? If it's a bug - can it be fixed? ;-)

I seem to recall an issue in the tracker that was something like this, but cannot find it at the moment. I recommend doing a search of the issue tracker and if you don't see anything, please file a new one. Be sure to include a sample score and precise steps (simply listing them in the bug report, not a video, is much better).
Like all bugs in open source software, it can of course be fixed once reported with clear steps to reproduce, if someone with the necessary combination of skills, time, and incentive volunteers to do so!

Cool, thanks. I can't find anything in the issue tracker for this particular issue, so I'll file it.
I don't really see what good a sample score would do here.. What would I include in that score to show the issue? A before and after-type thing? I'll write up the steps to reproduce as requested, but I really thought that little video showed better how the bug plays out. I might include that link as well.

An .mscz file showing the behavior allows anyone to reproduce exactly what you encounter without having to spend time creating a score from scratch trying to replicate your issue.
Ideally, you present a score, enumerate the steps you take until the problem manifests.
So,
"open this attached score"
"perform these exact steps in this order"
"here's what happens"
"here's what should happen"

Right, thanks, that's clear and consise, and very helpful! I'll do that, then!

Hi,
Did you find a solution or a workaround? I am experiencing the same problem. What I do is play the first chord, which enters a single note for the first and the complete chord for the second (tied) one. then I type the left arrow on the computer keyboard twice to come back to the first tied note, play the chord again, which results in the two complete chods no longer tied. The left arrow again (once) to go back to the first one and + to create the tie. This is somewhat cumbersome. Do you have a better solution?
Thanks.

I think that was more or less how I ended up doing it, or I just ended up rewriting those parts. I've yet to add a bug report, though, so I still need to do that. :-)
