glissando and first time play skip
Hi all.
The attached picture shows a portion of a score where the round brackets mean the notes are not played at first occurrence of the REPEAT, whereas they are played every other time.
The small line it’s a “glissando” which starts with last syllable at the end of the REPEAT.
In attempting to implement this notation in MuS, I encounter two issues:
1) I do not know how to do the glissando since I should start from a point which is not contiguous with the point where it ends, and
2) When I play it, the first time MuS does not skip the notes within parentheses
Any advice?
Thanks,

I don't believe they have implemented any way to have a repeated section behave differently based on what repeat it is playing. Sorry to disappoint.
There are a few glissando symbols in the master palette that you could try. The usual glissando from the arpeggios and glissandos palette is not what you want here.

I now see you're already using the correct glissandos. There is unfortunately no way to achieve a glissando playback across a repeat. My advice is that you don't actually want a repeat here, as inconvenient as that may be for your score layout.
OK, let's forget the GLISSANDO because I think I have a work-around.
Is there a possibility in MuS to say "play this note only the second time" ?
Thanks,

No, it is not!
The only way to accomplish this is Musescore 3.x, where you can "unroll repeats" and then manually delete the notes the first pass.
I don't know if this is on the roadmap for Mus 4.

I have MuS 3 and I've thought myself of that solution, but I want to stick to the official look..

MuS 3 makes a copy of the score when you use the command. This is suitable for e.g. audio output without changing the original score. But not for passing it on as a score.
