Musecore 4 says my score is corrupted

• Apr 7, 2023 - 14:41

Whenever I open my score it says it corruped because the first measure is incomplete, it's a pickup measure in 2/4, the normal tempo is 6/8.

I inserted a measure before the second measure and it was automatically created in 6/8. I then inserted the notes into this measures, deleted the first measure and made the 6/8 into an actual duration of 4/8. I alsi changed the tempo to dotted quarter-note as it makes more sense in a 6/8 piece than an ordinary quarter-note.

This procedure is wrong.
As soon as the first measure has been inserted, you must already go to Bar Properties and set it as in my attachment. Once this is done, you can start entering notes in anacrusis.

I opened your file with MuS 3.6.2. by extracting the mscx file.
I can't see any corruption except for some strange slurs.

  • Try to save the file again (use a new name).
  • try my version saved with MuS 3.6.2.

A shorter measure at the upbeat is normal and must work without an error message.
