I've compiled the latest trunk version of mscore.
I started mscore.
Then I click on "Plugins->Create Chord charts" or "Plugins->Create Score".
Then mscore hangs.

Here is the last part of the gdb log:

It happened to me a couple of times that Chord Chart caused a crash, but not always.

Version 0.9.6.3, Revision 3507, Mac

Does this still apply?

Status (old) needs info active

Still crashes for me (tested using 6e12077 July 3's Windows nightly build).

I recommend moving from "active" to "needs info" only after you tried to reproduce and couldn't, rather than just because it was reported a while ago.

Plugins are disabled by default, but you can manually turn them on (at least on Windows).
1. Go to Edit > Preferences (or wherever the preferences are on your platform).
2. Click on the plugin tab
3. Add a check next to the plugins you want to enable
4. Press "OK"
5. Quit MuseScore
6. Restart MuseScore.

Most plugins do not actually work, but most do not crash MuseScore when you run them.

Status (old) postponed won't fix

The new QML plugins don't seem to allow to port this plugin, as it is missing e.g. a file selector and a score.setStyle() method.
