I made a score out of many instruments. When I want to print every part out. I closed other instruments except for the one that I wanted to print. Then, I pressed "M" to shorten the view in the page view and the program collapsed. It only works in continuous view, but when I type Ctrl+P or click "Print" in the File column, it collapses too.


Comments

Probably shouldn't allow closing some parts and keeping other parts open. I guess what happened was that the toggling of multimeasure rests caused code somewhere to try to access the (now deallocated) other parts to update all parts and the master score to reflect the multimeasure rest, and thus the program segfaulted.

Also, for the record, to print all parts, simplest way is File / Export Parts, no closing of anything needed, it exports all the parts in a single operation.

Still, we'd like to understand how you managed to get the crash to happen. I wonder if instead of "closed" you really meant, you made the other instruments invisible in Edit / Instruments? That's definitely not the right way to create parts, either - instead, see File / Parts. But still, we'd like to fix the crash...
