The dialog for saving score online does have a checkbox "Log out on exit", which is currently hidden and not doing anything.
In order to enable and implement it, we'd need to get to some consensus what 'on exit' means here, as there several options:

  • After successful upload
  • On leaving the dialog via the Save button
  • On leaving the dialog via the Save or Cancel button
  • On leaving the dialog by any means, including just closing the dialog window
  • On exiting from MuseScore

Any other option?

The top 3 options are pretty easy to implement.


Comments

When it starts to consume thinking cycles for a user to understand what this checkbox means, and remember its choice, one could wonder if it does not defeats the purpose of being a time saving feature.

Save Online is advised if you use it on your own computer and intend not to disconnect any time soon. For all other purposes, the online web interface is more suitable.
