Cannot save extracted part
I have found myself unable to save a part extracted from a score. Can anyone else reproduce this?
1. Open a score.
2. File > Parts...
3. 'Create' a part
4. Close 'Parts...' window.
5. View the new part.
6. Save, or Save As.
Result: Nothing.
I can continue to alter and save the score that the part came from, but for some reason the extracted part is un-savable. Not even choosing "Save a Copy" does anything.

What OP SYS, what version MS?

I'm so sorry... Windows 7, Musescore 1.3.
I know we are no longer updating 1.3, but I really need to fix this.
I have just tried doing this to a completely different score than the one it was happening with, and extracted parts from that one seem to work just fine. So, I'm uploading the bugged score. Hopefully, I can delete it once saving the parts is working properly.
Edit: Score deleted because problem was fixed.
1. Open a score;
2. New;
3. Select part;
4. Create a part;
5. Close.
A new tab: save as...

Right, I know the steps to do it. But when I view the part in the new tab and try to save it, no window pops up for me to choose where to save it at. However, I have tried doing this for another score I have, and it allows me to save the part from that just fine.

The problem is the colon in the filename. Windows freaks out and thinks "LIT:" is trying to specify a drive name. When defining a part, don't use colons in the filename.

Omgsh, thank you so much. I knew I had to be doing something wrong, because I could not find anything pertaining to this problem in the forums. Thanks!
