To reproduce, add any line of the "Trill" category to a score (i.e., trill line or any of the three following in the Advanced Lines palette). Under "Trill" in the Inspector, change "Type" to "Wavy Line." Result: instant crash.


Comments

The crash comes in displaying the status info. There are only four trill types defined; wavy is not among among them. Not sure why it is displaying as an option in Inspector, seems it shouldn't if there are only four trill types and that isn't one of them.

Well, in 2.0.1 there's no problem—in fact, "Wavy line" is actually an option in the Lines palette. If the wavy line is no longer supported at all, that would be a compatibility issue, wouldn't it?

Status (old) active fixed

What about the compatibility question? If a pre-2.0.2 score contains a wavy line, set as such in the Inspector, what happens when it's opened in 2.0.2?

So, I want to be sure I understand this for documentation purposes. Is the following correct?

- For 2.0/2.0.1 there were separate "prallprall" and "wavy" lines that looked and acted identically

- Recently they were merged, the old "wavy" line (internally called "pure") is no longer present, and scores that used it were automaticlly converted to prallprall on read

- Bug was indeed just a no-longer-appropriate entry in the Inspector dropdown
