Reported in https://musescore.org/en/node/94546#comment-875982:
Adding both staccato and tenuto to a note (as opposed to using the pre-combined "loure" articulation) results in them overlapping. Similarly non-optimal results from the combination of staccato with sforzato or marcato (and again, the precombined options are good). These weren't good in 2.3.2 either, except maybe staccato / sforzato, which I think we special-cased.
Comments
https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/4384 fixes this issue, along with a few other articulation placement issues.
Don't use staccato and tenuto as two different articulations! SMuFL has one symbol for this articulation. It allows us to have special playback settings for this particular articulation. When you use two different articulations, which one do you want to hear in playback, staccato or tenuto? So, it is by design.
Fixed in branch master, commit 9749d3a898
fix #279607: Place chord-anchored stem-side articulations at the end of the stem.
fix #279672: Staccato and tenuto overlap.
Do not center tenuto over the stem.
Only center staccato over the stem if it is the only articulation.
