Version 2.0.3, and current 2.1 dev. : c114512

1) Create a score with ties (or load this test file: test file1.mscz
Alternatively, this one, without tie in last measure, but it's not the problem : test file2.mscz )

2) Ctrl + A

or 2’)  : click on first measure → Shift + click on last measure

(it’s a not a futile distinction since I don’t observe the same behavior in the time with these two manners of selection and so, affecting or not the ties)

Result : the ties are not selected (highlighted)

Consequence: impossible to select all ties in a score (EDIT: except via right-click on a tie -> select all similar elements), or a in range selection if the last measure is included in the selection

3) Select all the measures, except, so, the last one.
Result: as expected: ties are highlighted.

NB : very former issue, but it has worked (more or less, in my checking for now, depending the way to select). Needs further investigation.

Title Inability to select all ties in a score if the last measure is also selected Inability to select ties in a range selection if the last measure is also selected

So:

1) The second manner to select, ie click -> Shift + click, if the selection includes the last measure, has never worked, as far I goes back in time (May 2014: 56177c3)

2) For the first way, ie Ctrl + A, I observe a change on August 20, 2014.

- This nightly works (all ties are highlighted): 730b5cd
- Not this one (ties are not selected): 8a0fd79
(it's the current result: I checked later with some nightlies in 2015 and 2016: always same behavior)

Between these two nigthlies, there is two commits, in particular: https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/1184/files
