compatibility with tablets

• Dec 27, 2015 - 14:48

I was thinking about buying a Linx 1010B Tablet and wondered if anyone knows if musescore will work with full functionality?
it is a tablet operating with windows 10 and has both a touchscreen and a detachable keyboard.
Thanks.

Did you get the tablet? How is MuseScore working on it?
I guess it should run. Operating MuseScore with the touchscreen is probably not optimal but it should work.

I used to have an HP tablet running Windows 8, and it ran MuseScore 2.02 with full functionality. It was a bit clumsy unless I connected a keyboard and mouse to the usb port, but editing and playback were not a problem.

I have tried using MuseScore on a tablet vi remote desktop connection - eg, using my iPad as a virtually monitor / input device controlling my Windows computer via Splashtop. I was surprised how well it worked all things considered, but sure, a touch-optimized interface would certainly be better. Too many things are just awkward with no keyboard or physical mouse. I had the same feeling using MuseScore with a Smart Board - it's possible, some things actually feel nice, but overall you miss the keyboard and mouse too much. One non-obvious thing - the Piano Keybaord window, which I rarely use otherwise, is actually pretty nice as a method of note input on touch devices.
