Cut time = 2/2? I dragged one over to replace 4/4.
I can't reproduce.
Using MuseScore 1.1 - Mac 10.6.8.
Although 2/2 is equivalent to cut time, I am referring to the symbol itself. See attached.
I changed the symbol by dragging it from the pallet.
I could reproduce:
1. Create score.
2. Drag another time signature onto the first bar.
3. 'Instruments'.
4. Remove instrument.
5. Add instrument.
6. OK.
Result: Time signature disappears.
Using MuseScore 1.1 and 2.0 Nightly Build (4959) - Mac 10.6.8.
Much better title.
Thanks.
No - thank you ;).
I feel like a monarch when I do new titles.
This is also a problem in current trunk (r4988). A possible fix could be to disallow the deletion if the very last instrument. Why would you want to do so?
I don't think you should disallow the deletion of the very last instrument (should you want an empty score, for template reasons, etc) - I think the fix should simply be having the default time signature (and whatever else?) given to the score perhaps.
I'm not sure I understand your question. I wanted to change the single voice (piano, grand staff) in the score to "Voice".
I added voice, deleted piano and that was the result.
Regards,
Can still reproduce. Workaround is of course to apply the time signature again.
