Parts Copying Shutdown Bug
I am working on transcribing vocal parts from an orchestral score to a new file. Sometimes when I do a ctrl + A, ctrl + C, ctrl + V copy-paste, when I paste onto the new score the window immediately crashes. However, this does not happen when I copy-paste a portion of the old music.

Can you attach the MuseScore file and describe the steps you are taking?

I go to one of the vocal parts opened from the main score (Hebrew Slave Women, for instance). I do ctrl + A to select all, then do ctrl + C to copy all. I then go into the new document and hit ctrl + V to paste all, and at that point the new document crashes. I'm able to open it back up and go from what I last saved, but it does the same thing every time. However, when I just selected from a few measures after the beginning all the way to the end and copy-pasted that with keyboard shortcuts, it worked fine.

I'm following your steps (Copy.Paste the Hebrew Slave Woomen part into a new document) and I can't reproduce this crash (version 4.5.2, MacOS)
Here's the new document I've created (I've used a score for voice, Woomen too) and with the same Time and Key signatures, see: new document.mscz
Can you reproduce the crash with “my” new document? And if not, could you also attach “your” new document.
EDIT: the result after copy-paste in the new document

I was not able to reproduce the crash with "your" new document. Here is "my" new document.

Still not here. The part is pasted as expected, see: A3. God Has Bigger Plans - Miriam - vocal parts_0.mscz

Apparently, if you disable multimeasures rests (Ctrl + Shift + M) in the parts before copying and pasting into the new document, it works as expected (the crash no longer occurs). Could you confirm?

Confirmed. Weird!
