Notes in copied measure cannot be made normal size

• Dec 25, 2020 - 16:31

I copied a measure where all the notes in the source measure where set to "Small." Upon pasting into an empty measure, the small sized note heads were displayed but in the inspector the notes are not checked as small. Further checking the box to make them small makes them really tiny (even smaller.) Cannot make these notes normal size. Note that the copy and paste was from one staff to the other. Copied from cello to piano treble. When I do the copy and paste into the same staff (Cello to Cello) the inspector shows that the copied notes are checked as small, and unchecking makes them normal size.

I can't recreate the reported bug in the 3.5.2 stable release. What I did find is that if I make the note small then copy and make the chord small or chord small the copy and make the note small I get tiny noteheads.

There are two "Small" checkboxes, one in the chord section and one in the note section. The one in the chord section will make the stem and flag (as applicable) small while the Small in the note section only makes the notehead small. Note that if the notes are beamed, only the notehead is affected by the chord section unless you make all beamed chords small.

So if you are finding something different then please give steps to explain and attach a score if it will help us understand.

I am having trouble recreating the problem I reported. It is possible I was not looking consistently at the Chord section. I will delete the original comment later today since it is probably a red herring and shouldn't be in the forum.
