Select instrument via midi ?
Hello
I am using musescore (great tool by the way big up to the devel team :) with an external midi controller and I can edit my instrument with it.
If I want to edit another instrument I have to do it manually (with the mouse).
I want, for a live event, to have the possibility to select the instrument I want to edit via midi.
Is there a way to do it ?
If yes, how can I do it ?
Thank you in advance !
Cheers
Romain

It does not appear so. The commands available via MIDI are in Edit / Preferences / Note Input, and there is nothing about changing instruments or staves, Note though that you are not limited to the mouse - Alt+Up/Down changes staves, if that helps.

Hello Marc !
thank you for answer.
So do you think it would be possible to send via midi or osc (or in another way) this command Alt+Up/Down to musescore ?

Good question! I'm aware of OSC but don't know how it works. In theory, though I know it is supposed to be a way of accessing various commands, I just don't know how, or if it applies to just a subset or to all. Hopefully someone else can address that...

Send an OSC message "/actions/next-track" or "/actions/prev-track" should go to next and previous "tracks". In MuseScore a track is a voice (if it exists) or a staff

There is unfortunately no documentation for the OSC interface.
OSC commands are here https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/blob/2.1/mscore/osc.cpp#L72
And via this loop https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/blob/2.1/mscore/osc.cpp#L104
one can call any shortcut with
/actions/. You can get a list of "shortcutId" here https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/blob/2.1/mscore/shortcut.cpp
