Hi-HAt Stem Disappears
Hi,
I need to create a drum set score with snare drum, bass drum and hi-hat with pedal in one voice, all stems going up.
When I input all three instruments there is no stem on the hi-hat with pedal and the notes condense. I'm using a mac (osx 10.7.2) and musescore 1.2
Here are the steps I take after setting up a new score:
Click on eighth note, click on note entry.
Click on acoustic snare and enter 8 eighth notes.
Click on acoustic bass drum, click on voice one and enter eighth notes on 1 and 3
Click on Hi-Hat with pedal, click on voice one and enter eighth notes on 2 and 4.
No stem on beats 2&4.
Attached is an example.
Thanks.

Nice report - but if you want to make sure it gets looked at and doesn't get forgotten, you should submit it as an actual issue, not just a forum post. See the "issue tracker" link at right of this page.

They don't make posting a bug report easy.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

FWIW, while posting to the forum is indeed easier than using the issue tracker, the advantage of the latter is the tracking - the ability to assign priorities and owners, mark status, etc. And that means those fields need to be filled in correctly in order for the system to work. It's pretty much a necessary evil in the software world that there be some way to track issues in this fashion, and in my experience, all issue tracking systems are more cumbersome than one would like, but we learn to live with it.
In the commercial software world, ordinary users are not affected by this. They submit issues somewhat more informally to a support person (eg, someone paid to deal with this stuff), and then the support person submits the issue to the official tracker, or forwards the info to one of the software engineers to do it.
In the open source world, those distinctions (user / support person / engineer) don't exist, though. My personal philosophy is that I don't mind playing the role of the "support person" for new users, submitting issues for them, but at some point, I think they should "graduate" to being able to do so themselves. So congratulations :-)

Makes sense, thanks again for your help.
