tuplet (triplet) construction fails

• Apr 23, 2023 - 16:28

Creating a triplet as shown in picture panics MS3. Anyone with a comparable experience? Or maybe even a solution?

I'm on version 3.6.2.54. And yes, I see now, the previous screenshot was incorrect. When I isolate the triplet the inserted png show the complete triplet. It starts with a grace note combined with a 16th, then an eight and ends with a dotted eighth rest. It was OK on a previous version of MS. Opening the file from the previous version gives an "error" message also shown in a pic. It fits with measure number of the measure(s) where the triplet is located.

That score has only one stave. And lots of corruptions, you'd need to fix them all

Well, it was OK in the version I just upgraded from. I don't remember which version that was.
As you can see, the 32nd notes -and the 48's and 96's(!!!)- are no regular notes. I suppose they were introduced, with a short duration, in a previous version of MS to make the use of grace notes possible. When migrating from a previous version to the current, they seem to be a pain... I guess the import/conversion changed the duration of the notes the grace notes belong to. And then the triplets are messed up.
I think the duration of a grace note added to the duration of the note it is attached to, should be the duration of the note it is attached to. So in MS the duration of a grace note should be 0 but audible.
