Hmmm...

Bug is still there in rev. 3009 (Branch 0.9.6) at least under Windows XP. Use the same sample file as above to check.

Thanks,

Miwarre, the sample file was created at the time of the bug report (before the fix). If you recreate the file with the latest nightly versions it works as expected. (Tested using r. 3014 self-built, Windows 7)

You're right.

Thanks and sorry for 'polluting' the thread: I did not expect (also) the file format has to be changed to fix the issue but only the code itself.

So, just to be exhaustive, the procedure to fix old files is:

1) Delete any parenthesized accidental
2) Add the accidental back
3) Add the parentheses back.

Thanks,

M.
