Wrong symbols in staff text if score is older style

• Jun 6, 2021 - 23:23

If I have score with older style (before 3.6), some symbols in staff text are incorrect.
It should be staff5LinesWide, but its postcard.

Why? Is it possible to fix it for older style too?

Thanks

Interesting. The only difference between those two files is this:

      <usePre_3_6_defaults>1</usePre_3_6_defaults>
      <defaultsVersion>301</defaultsVersion>

which makes me wonder (as it is working on Windows for me) if the AppImage somehow ended up with a different version of the font files and/or whether you have a version of them installed locally (that would be Emmentaler / MScore for the "old" version).

Looks fine loading either version to me, both show the staff symbol - AppImage 3.6.2 on Debian.

Found other stange things.

On win, both versions shows symbol, but in windows, size of symbol is different.
On ubuntu (appimage) postcard instead of staff symbol is still there if I change font of symbol text.

Correct win:

Wrong win:

Looks different here (Symbols-wrong_leland.mscx, MuseScore 3..6.2, Windows 10):

Doesn't fit perfectly, but that score doesn't use the Leland Musical (Text) font, it uses Emmentaler (Text), but Lelena Text for that symbol, so no wonder there's a small difference. Also it doesn't use "Indent firest system" like the other one.
