Musescore crashed when I tried to open file.

• Apr 4, 2025 - 05:18

Can someone please help me, I tried to open this file I've made but MS crashed everytime. I tried many ways that I searched on the internet (open while 1 file is opening, revert to factory settings, etc.) but still won't work.

It crashes in 4.5.1.
But I was able to open it in 3.7, save it and then it opened fine in 4.5.1.

It crashes in connection with a tie missing a start note,

        if (tie && tie->addToSkyline()) {
            SlurTieLayout::calculateDirection(tie);
            double overlap = 0.0;                // how much tie can overlap start and end notes
            bool shortStart = false;            // whether tie should clear start note or not
            Note* startNote = tie->startNote();   <<<<<<<<< nullptr
            Chord* startChord = startNote->chord();  <<<<<<< crash

Crash is fixed by https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/27466
But I see other issues, like partial ties not saving in measures 11, 12, 13.
And selecting the context menu item for partial ties still crashes.
Obviously, Partial ties are not ready yet.
