strange add-slur command behaviour when put on existing note
when not in note entry mode:
1. select any note on a sheet
2. press "+slur" button
=> nothing happens. this could either be good, because it forces people to use note entry mode, otherwise you couldn't choose a length for the "slurred" note (I don't know, what it's called correctly)
so: when in note enty mode:
1. select any note on a sheet
2. select a note length
3. press "+slur" button
4. something happens, but I'm not sure if it's well-defined. The result should be the same, as when you enter a note in note entry mode and than use the slur function.
This could be related to

it's crashing in undoAddElement(), element->type() == TIE

By "+slur" you mean the tie button?
If you are not in note entry mode, then a tie only works between two notes of the same pitch. At the moment this is the only way to add ties to chords so I don't recommend we change the behavior until after the long-standing bug has been fixed:
#4526: Adding ties to chords (0.9.4 regression)
In your second report if you repeat step 3 then you get the expected behavior. (obviously you should only have to do step 3 once).
right, all works as expected.
I tracked it down to the barline problem in 2nd/3rd/... voices. see http://musescore.org/en/node/8347
