In MuseScore 2, we have several problems happening because of gaps in tuplets. Gaps are created when one delete a rest in a voice > 1. It has been proposed several times to disallow the deletion of rests in tuplets and instead make the rest invisible. We could also make rest in voice invisible when the user tries to delete them.

"We could also make rest in voice invisible when the user tries to delete them."

I take it you mean voice 1? I'm opposed to this. It would cause more confusion that it solves. For example, what would be the result if you select a combination of notes and rests and press delete?
