Musescore 4 crashes when attempting to change time signature

• Dec 20, 2022 - 07:11

I've been trying to change the time signature from 4/4 to 6/8 in an etude I'm writing, and every time I highlight the bar and press on the "6/8" icon in the "Time signatures" under the palette, Musescore 4 crashes. This is not a one-time thing, I've done the exact same thing 10 times in a row and the crash has persisted all 10 times.

I have been having similar problems with a piece that shifts periodically between 5/4 and 6/4. The crash does not occur if there are only a few measures remaining in the piece where you make the time signature change. But crashed consistently when I had 30 or 40 measures remaining, even where there was no notation in them.

This score is corrupt. A 4.0.2 pre-release shows:

Incomplete measure: Part score: Flute, measure 80, staff 1. Found: 0/1. Expected: 4/4.
Incomplete measure: Part score: Flute, measure 81, staff 1. Found: 0/1. Expected: 4/4.
Incomplete measure: Part score: Flute, measure 82, staff 1. Found: 0/1. Expected: 4/4.
Incomplete measure: Part score: Flute, measure 83, staff 1. Found: 0/1. Expected: 4/4.
Incomplete measure: Part score: Flute, measure 84, staff 1. Found: 0/1. Expected: 4/4.
Incomplete measure: Part score: Flute, measure 85, staff 1. Found: 0/1. Expected: 4/4.
Incomplete measure: Part score: Flute, measure 86, staff 1. Found: 0/1. Expected: 4/4.
Incomplete measure: Part score: Flute, measure 87, staff 1. Found: 0/1. Expected: 4/4.

You'd need to fix those before going any further
