Double stemmed tie not working

• Apr 17, 2016 - 08:02

I just uploaded my first score a day ago and I've noticed a problem; the doubled stemmed ties in guitar II are not working. I've tried to fix the problem, but the program seems to count the first bass note as an eighth note and completely ignoring the 2nd voice bass note.

The only way for me to to fix it is to get rid of voice 1 on the first beat, but that ruins the legato. Any suggestions?

Here is a link to the score. It's very easy to hear in the first four bars.

Indeed, this is due to a known issue (I can not find it yet in the Issue Tracker, but it is, I'm sure).

The workaround is to uncheck "Play" in the Inspector, as regards the shortest note, that is to say in your file, the eighth notes in Voice1.
It is a bit time consuming alas (and in the guitar repertoire, it is a writing characteristic that consistently returns!)
We can improve that by planning ahead to take this step, in the Inspector, at the same time you change the head type of the note, since these notes are in unison.
I express my wish that this issue be fixed, but apparently it is not easy to solve.
