New

  • Default to dark theme on macOS if Dark Mode (available as of 10.14 Mojave) is the system-wide preference

  • Avoid poor alignment of hairpins to dynamics bound to the segment before hairpin start
  • Add style settings allowing MDL templates to follow basic drum line notation rules better
  • Double/triple-clicking in a text editing mode now selects a word/paragraph respectively

Fixes

  • Playback tempo was incorrect when working in continuous view
  • Playback tempo set to defaults in some cases when editing score elements
  • Tempo changes set fermata time stretch to defaults
  • Tuplets and articulations were laid out incorrectly
  • Layout shift in a measure at start of a system happened in some cases
  • Multi-measure rests created unexpected key signatures in some cases
  • Key signature appeared in multi measure rest after being deleted from underlying measure
  • Side panels were not dockable after being undocked and closed once
  • Mixer panel disappeared in some cases
  • Mixer didn't remember changes in the channels
  • Changing clef didn't have an effect in combination with multi measure rest
  • Сopying/pasting a clef into an another clef crashed Musescore
  • Right-click / Edit Element with a different element selected led to crash
  • Exporting parts from a score didn't produce correct MIDI, MP3, WAV, OGG, and FLAC files.
