I'm answering myself:
still no count-in in MS 4.1!
It would be urgent to get this function back! It's this lack that keeps me on Musescore 3 in production, whereas the VST and FX management is absolutely brilliant on MS4!
But the advantage of count-in is not limited to the first measure: you can count-in from any measure. This is essential, for example, when rehearsing a band or choir with Musescore.
Is there a way to vote for enhancement requests. I would vote for this one big time. What I am doing now is creating in MS4.1 and exporting to musicXML which MS3 can read. Then I practice in MS3.
Why don't you create the file with version 3 if you have to open it with 3?
Note that 3.7 can open V4 files directly, avoiding the musicxml export step.
I have a couple reasons for not wanting to develop in MuseScore version 3. I was unable to find a 3.7 download on the MuseScore.org download page. I did find it in GitHub but I don't want to go through the process required for a GitHub download. Also, I prefer to develop my scores in the latest version of MuseScore.
Here is another fan of 4.x really missing the count-in feature from 3.x.!
I'm using MuseScore primarily to practice playing my instrument in the context of other instruments and the count-in is extremely usefull in this environment.
BIG Thanks to the team for this amazing work of building MS4 after the really great MS3 got to its structural ends.

If it is that urgent, I suppose you could add a count in to the score.
