Font

• Feb 3, 2021 - 21:25

When I upgraded to 3.6, I made the mistake of selecting change to Edwin font for all scores. I forgot that I've created PPT presentations from Musescore. Now I can't correct an error on an old score without redoing all slides. What was the default font on the pervious version or how can I tell the program to open an existing score while retaining the original parameters?

Edwin is the new default text font; the previous defaults were Emmentaler and FreeSerif. If you already told MuseScore to sue the new style and saved the result and closed the file, it's too late for a simple undo, but you can open the file then use Format / Load Style, and select an MSS file with the desired defaults. You can create an MSS from a file that has the defaults you want using Format / Save Style. I'm not quite which way you are trying to change things, or what PPT has to do with what fonts you choose within MuseScore.

I create "Lead Sheet" scores for songs that I export as PNG images. I create PPT presentations by inserting the PNG images. We use them for worship services because the people like to see the notes instead of just the lyrics, even if they don't read music. If I discover a mistake, I correct the Musescore file and export it again. With a different font, I'd have to redo the entire presentation, instead of only one slide.

In addition, if you've once activated "remember my choice and don't ask again" in the dialogue window "Would you like to try our improved score style?", you always can activate to show it again it via edit->preferences...->import.
