OS: Windows 7 SP 1 (6.1), Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore version (64-bit): 3.6.0, revision: fc50932

When importing 2.x score in v3.5.2 (or earlier), the 'Reset Positions Dialog' is displayed :

In the last Dev Build, this dialog has been replaced by the 'Improved Style Dialog' :

But nothing ask the user if he want to 'reset positions of all elements'

Therefore in Preferences -> Import the choice to ask or not to reset elements is still present :

Expected behavior:
- In case of importing a 2.x score, the message, choice, and fonctionality of the previous 'Reset all positions' dialog should be integrated in the new 'Improved style' dialog.

Title Reset positions of all elements dialog when importing 2.x scores is no more displayed ⇒ "Reset position of all elements?" dialog (2.x scores): "NO" button is missing
Severity S3 - Major ⇒ S2 - Critical

IMV, the new dialog is misleading as it gives the impression that resetting is a magic bullet. To take one example: if you are importing a 2.x guitar score with many custom fingerings and lines, the last thing you want is a full reset.

Suggestion: Make the wording of the dialog more neutral and to the point.

Oops.

Status active ⇒ fixed

Please open a new issue for that, as it is unrelated to this here (well, not entirely unrelated)
But I can confirm that other settings are getting changed too, like for 3.5 scores, even when denying the new settings
