In 2.0 beta 1 the default export extension is mscx.

I don't see a good reason to push mscx since people should be using mscz instead.

Could we change the default export extension to mscz, but since that is not in the list, perhaps we can default it to pdf?

Export is for non-MuseScore formats, as far as I understand it, so mscz is not there and I guess mscx shouldn't either. Seems pdf is a good default

I think what currently exists is fine - the order (top to bottom) kind-of represents near-lossless to lossy. I would maybe swap PNG and SVG though?

I would like if possible to be alble to save ALL my separate parts ONCE (like in "export parts" you don't ahve to save them individually) also in musescore format........

PDF is a good default but MSCZ should also appear (or add a "Save parts as" button that would work like "Export parts")
