Figured-bass continuation bug online
Any time a score is posted with a figured bass continuation graphic (which, as known, doesn't show), when posted online, a grey line is smeared across the face of the score in a horrible way. See https://musescore.com/bsg/zelenkamiserereanalysis for an example. The rendered image gets cached forever. That is a problem. I understand that the version on the site cannot be fixed until a new release, but the "things to get fixed fast" list should note this.

Wouldn't this need to get reported on muescore.com then?

It's sort of bimodal, as it were. There is nothing they can do unless a version were present here that fixed that problem. Quite frankly, I'm not sure what's going on, because they clearly have 3.3, because RNA works, yet, my score in the same 3.3 (local desktop app, MacOS) simply omits the figured-bass continuation, and does not produce the streak.
So maybe it is possible, or even likely, that 3.3.1 fixes the figured bass continuation problem reported here, i.e., it disappears, but they (.com) can do nothing until such a fix is released here.

FWIW, this is corrupt in both Firefox and Chrome.
I'm afraid that it is something in their 3.3 build causing this.
The online display uses SVG-exported images from their build. And when downloading the online PDF, the line is also included
So I've downloaded your score and exported to SVG/PDF/PNG on my Windows10(64-bit) 3.3 release and that line is not visible in any of those exports..

their build means the MuseScore backend in MuseScore.com, right? Which is a Linux build, and I'm not sure it uses 100% the same code base as the 3.3 branch

Indeed.. So if anyone on linux could perform a local SVG export of that score using the 3.3 official appImage and share it we would know more.

Closer inspection indeed reveals that they have a completely differently rendered/processed SVG online.
Online version has:
* A
path
for the line (red in screenshot)* A
path
for all figured bass before it (green in screenshot)* A
path
for all figured bass after it (blue in screenshot)Local version has:
* A
path
for each figured bass element* No line
So either this difference is caused by running from a different OS when generating the SVG; or the server does some extra processing in an attempt to minimize SVGsize (which would be then at fault for creating that line); or the server is running a modified 3.3 version which doesn't include SVG-fixes the official release might have; or the server is running 3.3 but against a different Qt version which doesn't have the required SVG-fixes.
I wish the site would make available in the score the version/build/ID of the MS version that rendered the sound (when not custom) and the graphics (or even hidden in the HTML, but available).
