The issue is that textlines contain text items that are not laid out directly - it's the layout process that normally deals with the markup. I guess the problem could occur for any element type that is not itself a text element, but "contains" a text element that you edit via a dialog. But furthermore, it would only show up for such elements that actually allow editing of text properties in 1.3 - that rules out glissandi. So I *think* textlines might be the only text type that suffers this particular bug.

I'm investigating fixes. I've got one that works, but I don't particularly like it. I'll commit something soon though.

This might actually be "by design" - it is, as far as I know, the only way to get things like the Pedal symbol. So this box may have to show the markup for that reason at least.

Its by design. There is no easy way to render MuseScore text (with score symbols) in a Qt dialog box. Also there is no easy way to otherwise enter score symbols into text.
