Changes to the size of 'Gliss' text on glissando gets reset when a project is reopened

even you are all but one ;-)

Seems that changed size is not written into the score in the first place:

              <Spanner type="Glissando">
                <Glissando>
                  <text>gliss.</text>
                  <subtype>1</subtype>
                  <diagonal>1</diagonal>
                  <anchor>3</anchor>
                  </Glissando>

Hi, I'm still able to reproduce this issue. Changed the "gliss." text to "port." and saved the file. When reopening all instances have the "gliss." text back. I also tried to save it in a custom palette, the palette displays it as "gliss." and when added it has the same text, not the custom one.
Version/OS:
OS: Windows 10 (10.0), Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore version (64-bit): 3.6.0.487915773, revision: 1977cb3

Works for me. MuseScore 3.6.1, Windows 10

Hi,
Opening your file shows the "gliss." text on my side. I have extracted the content of the archive and opened the XML file and it shows that the Glissando has the text: "port.", same with my own score. So the problem is more on reading the content from the file, at least on my side. I'll try a fresh reinstall of MuseScore.

Thanks!

I updated MuseScore to version 3.6.1.515740707, revision: d0fc8e9 and still seeing the same behavior, opening a file saved with a "custom" glissando label, reopens it with the default "gliss." label. I'm a bit confused as I can't think of anything else that might be wrong.

Share the score. And the exact steps to reproduce

Hi,

Here is a file, it should have two glissandos with text "port." - opening it on my side after saving and closing the file, displays "gliss." instead of "port.".

Steps to repro:
1. Open MuseScore and create a new file
2. Add a few notes and add a glissando between two or more
3. Change the "gliss." text to "port." from the inspector pane (you can also change the type but it should not matter for the printed output)
4. Save the file
5. Close MuseScore and reopen
6. Open the same file and inspect the glissando

Expected:
- MuseScore opens the score and the glissando text is displayed as "port."

Actual:
- MuseScore opens the score and the glissando text is displayed as "gliss."

Regards,
Raul.

Installed MuseScore 3.6.1.515739048 on my work MacBook Pro, opened the file attached on my previous reply and it is displayed as "gliss.". Created a new file from scratch, followed the steps and I get the same result. I first thought it could be a setting on my Windows MuseScore install, but it looks like with a fresh install I get the same result.

The only way I can make it work is if I set it as style. But that will change all instances of "gliss." into "port.". Unfortunately I have both in the same file :), so even if I do that, I'll end up updating all the "port." into "gliss." where a "gliss." style is used.

Thanks,
Raul.

If I open that score in 3.6.2 (to be released early next week) I get:

Same in 3.5.2 BTW

In 3.6.1and 3.6.0 though it indeed reads 'gliss.' instead. Can't explain why.

But as is shows correctly in 3.5.2 this seems to be a different problem. And indeed this issue here is about the font size, not the text.

If you can still reproduce it with 3.6.2 (as said, a) I can't and b) that is expected early next week) please open a new issue for it.

Hi,

No worries, I just wanted to spot it out and I didn't want to raise a new one as I thought it's a similar issue. If with next version it displays correctly, it's all good. I'll update as soon as the new version is available.

Many thanks,
Raul.

Actually I now see where the problem and fix is, see #316096: Glissando Reverts between closing and reopening file and #305093: Setting lyrics style changes glissando text, both indeed fixed in 3.6.2
