Tableture Stems go all the way to the fret number please

Could we please have the ability to have note stems go all the way through the staff to the number when using Tab?
This would be my preferred default.
Thank you.

I'd certainly welcome the option of tablature stems within the staff that extend to the fret numbers.

Other worthy additions are some of the features we have in normal staves:

     • adjustable beam height (i.e. stem length)
     • automatic balancing of stem direction (as occurs around the middle line of normal staves)
     • manually adjustable stem direction

     • automatic beam angles
     • manually adjustable beam angle

Thanks for suggesting this!

"the ability to have note stems go all the way through the staff"
Well, you already have this option in MuseScore (since version 2)
Either in the Instruments panel, by choosing the Full staff type - image below

Or in the Advanced style properties (via right-click the staff / Staff/part properties / Note values) -> select "Stems and beams + Through staff" buttons - image below.

And if this is your preferred way, simply save your score as a "Template" that you'll reuse with each new score without redoing these settings.
