Suggestion for a usability improvement for the nightly downloads page

• Jul 19, 2017 - 14:02

On a separate thread, developers were suggesting that they would like the community to perform "random" testing of the nightly builds. Also, Isaac said I could have a lot of "fun" checking out the automatic layout features in 3.0.

So I followed the Download link, then in the Nighly Builds section, I followed the Windows 7 and Above link and downloaded the latest nightly build and didn't see any significant changes. If I had looked a little closer, I would have seen the "2.2" buried in the file name. And no matter how hard I look, I won't find any nightly with "3.0" in its name.

You could improve the usability of this page by having sections labeled "MuseScore 2" and "MuseScore 3".

Duh... I know that *now*.

My suggestion was for a simple usability change that would help future testers, especially those who aren't into source control system jargon and would like to just grab the 3.0 nightly.

I do know source control stuff but I didn't think about the fact that there would also be a 2.2 nightly, so I grabbed the topmost nightly. So it would help even people with programming experience.
