Volta, (1st and 2nd ending of repeats) get lost. Not the measures, just the volta sign above them 322bdba, Win XPpro SP3.
Sorry, no sample file I could share.
FWIW, the CAP file in my example here is opening correctly. The CAPX makes MuseScore crash.
@Jojo could you describe exactly the case where the volta is lost?
Indeed the .cap opens correctly. But it's 1st volta spans only one measure, the ones I saw failing had more than one, so it looks this is the wrong test case
Hmm, strange, even that works now?
Ah! I see now: export this as xml and import again -> voltas are shortened. So it seem more an xml im-/export problen than a capella import problem (except for the .cpax crash)
Explanation why I didn't spot that earlier: I used the nighly builds in batch mode to change some 300 .cap files into .xml (.mxl) and then 1.3 in batch mode to make them .mscz (I rather wanted to use the stable 1.3 for this large project of a 400 pages songbook ;-))
More investigation: it seems the xml export loses them, I imported an xml (prducued from an imported .cap in nightly build) in (a read only demo version of) Capella and they are too short there already.
Comments
Changed category to feature request, as it is simply not implemented.
It is still quite important though. None of the other lines and articulations are as important as voltas, they IHMO are an integral part of repeats.
This should not go without stating how thankful I am for your work, esp. the recent Capelle Import improvements, it helped me a lot.
Pull request #334.
Fixed in 53cc666fae
There is still an issue, when a volta spans more than one measure. The import attaches them to their first measure only.
And another minor issue: they lose the dot, so have a plain number like 1 or 2 rather than 1. or 2.
Sample file for volta over 2 measures.
Importing voltas wrongly seems to be a bug to me...
Yes, of course it is a bug. Will look at it, but cannot tell when ...
lasconic, thanks for the sample file. Could not start without it.
no hurry. wrong voltas are much easier to spot than missing ones (1st volta doesn't reach the close repeat bar)

see #21269: [XML export] Voltas get shortened to span just one measure
Closing the issue again, as voltas are imported correctly from Capella files.
Created a separate issue #21304: [capx import] crash importing volta.capx for the crash.
Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.
