Project

1) edit some text
2) press F2 to display Special Characters palette
3) hover mouse over the "space" just before the copyright symbol

Result: tooltip says "noteLongaSquareDown".

I am pretty sure this is because the symNames and symUserNames arrays got out of sync. My guess is it involves the ornamentDownPrall ("Down prall") which appears to have moved a couple of times and current has an entry in symUserNames (towards the very very end of the list) but is commented out in symNames.

An easy enough for someone who understands where this symbol does belong, but that's not me.


Comments

I think in needs to get commented out, like it is in sym.h, SymId and sym.cpp, symNames, there with a comment // -> SymId::ornamentPrecompMordentUpperPrefix },

See 8c67df20ab, seems to have been forgotten to comment out there

Status PR created fixed

Fixed in branch master, commit 10b9628b29

_fix #294125: symUserNames and symNames out of sync

Omission from 8c67df20ab, leads to a bogus toolTip being displayed for
Space in the F2 palette.
While at it, make those texts translatable._
