Anacruse compass count.
Is there any configuration in MuseScore for him to be instructed to count or not the anacruse measure at the beginning of a score?

1) When you create a new score via the wizard, and choose the pickup measure (anacrusis) at that time, the measure is not counted, automatically.
2) When you have already created a score, and you now decide to get a pickup measure, it is up to you (in Measure Properties) to check "Exclude from measure count".

In orchestras, bands as in literatures and music theory books in practice is it correct to count or not the anacruse measure at the beginning of the musical work? Or does it depend on each musical genre, culture and others?
Friendly hug!

A pickup measure should not be counted, regardless of the musical style. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anacrusis
