single piano stave with bass clef turns to treble after property edit

• May 10, 2018 - 15:32

Having added a piano stave to a score, and removed the stave 1 (trebble clef) in the Instruments panel, the new (single) stave looks normal, and I put some notes in it.
But after editing some stave properties (short, long or part name) and closing the properties window, the (bass) clef symbol at the start of the stave turns into the treble clef, as is the stave type in the Instruments panel.

I use the single-stave layout as tool with my piano lessons, because I want to control left- and right-hand part volume and mute controls separately in Mixer and visibility in Instruments panel, and will have a few versions of each part/stave, sometimes with click, drum, bass and/or voice tracks.

Using version: 2.2.1 linux 64-bit. I don't remember having this seen in earlier versions.

So...
Please attach a score from which you have removed the stave 1 (trebble clef) in the Instruments panel ...and... put some notes in it.

Then...
Give precise steps that we can perform on that attachment to vanish the bass clef and have it turn into treble.

Regards.

I can confirm this:

1) new score for piano
2) remove top (treble) staff
3) right click remaining (bass) staff, Staff Properties, change name
4) OK

Result: bass clef changes to treble. Apparently we are re-reading the instrument definition. Howeve,r if you then change the clef back to bass, this change sticks.
