staff text isn't anchored to a note / rest (1.3score-> BETA1)

• Aug 29, 2014 - 13:16

Mesure 95 - 98 : select text in musescore 1.3 there are for flute attached to the begining of the mesure, for piano to the first note
in 2.0 there are not attached to anything

Another comparison, without bug I think
In the flute part in 1.3 the text don't show as it is on a mmrest
in Musescore 1.2 the text appear with the 4mesure not on mmrest

(we have also noticed that on http://musescore.org/en/node/31086

I may have written wrong, as I may have better wrote it only on the first mesure... anyone have better idea?

What do your mean when you say it is "not attached to anything"? It looks normal to me. Do you mean that you don't see a line showing you the attachment point when you drag? I think that's just normal for text in 2.0 Beta 1. Text is not actually attached to "notes" - it can be attached at places where there are no notes (although the only way to get that is add to a note then delete the note).

I meant that right ;)

And when there are attached to a rest we don't have to delete it ? right ?

Could it be that if I change the text to the first mesure concerned with more space between world (instead of different mesure text ) that when extracting the part it only breack the mmrest (if necessary) to add the text in the right place ...?

I have actually this version
flute vactuelle

and if I put part of text on the mesure "poco" i could get that : flute v2

but you have to do it manually and I know you can't do otherwise, so that ok

I noticed another diferent about "text" in Beta 1 and musescore 1.3
when we have tempo text or rehearsal mark in beta 1 (Pirates-Flute1) it separate the mesure from the multi mesure rest,
or in musescore 1.3 it doesn't and that should be I think the right behavour

about other text like rit , it doesn't separate the mesure... (or even the poco a poco in Earth Flute v2)

Maybe it is done in the nightlies but I didn't test so far, should I ? or is there an option I didn't see ?

There have been changes in how certain elements affect mmrests since the Beta. But staff text and tempo text should not have been affected. Intended behavior is that a staff or tempo text on the first measure of an mmrest is displayed above the mmrest itself. Are you seeing something different? As far as I recall, it worked that way in the Beta, but rehearse marks, chord symbols, and repeat text worked differently. These should all be the same now.

Actually, when I look at your score, I see that what you are calling a "Rehearsal Mark" is actually just a plain "Text" element and not in fact an actual rehearsal mark at all. So I guess it must have been originally created in 1.3. That does seem to be a bug - rehearsal marks in 1.3 files are not imported correctly. If you create a score in 2.0, though, rehearsal marks work correctly with respect to mmrests.

Can you file an bug report in the Issue Tracker on this? Specify that the problem only exists for rehearsal marks in scores created in 1.3.
