On-screen Piano Keyboard not cleared when playing
I have the piano keyboard on the screen with my score. Let's say if I press the Rewind key to the beginning of the score. The first note/s on the score would be highlighted on the score and on the corresponding keys on-screen piano keyboard. If I now click on the Play button, the score starts to play but the highlighted key/s would stay highlighted even the playing passed the highlighted note/s. The same behavior if I start playing the score anywhere, let's say at any measure, on the score. Wherever the starting note is, the corresponding key on the on-screen piano stays highlighted for the entire score. If I click the mouse anywhere not on the score before start playing which will clear any highlighted notes and keys on the on-screen piano, the on-screen piano plays normally. If I have multiple notes in the position of the first note, there will be multiple-notes highlighted keys on the on-screen keyboard. This is annoying. I suggest that if the on-screen piano is activated, and if the Play button is clicked, the on-screen piano should be reset and cleared of all active keys.

This makes sense to me. But when I mentioned an official suggestion to the issue tracker, I didn't mean this forum, I meant the actual issue tracker - see the Support menu above for the link. Post in this forum are great for discussion but typically will get lost over time. To be logged for actual consideration, better to get it into the tracker.
BTW, another workaround is to not select a note at all to start playback, but instead, the barline or some other marking.

I am still learning. I am a relatively new Musescore and Forum user. Thanks for the help. You forced me to look!
