Measurenumber 0 shown at pickup bar

• Apr 20, 2023 - 15:54

When a pickup bar is used and Measurenumbers are set to each system and 'show first' is deselected, a measure number 0 is shown at the first staff.
If Show first is selected it shows 0 at the pickup bar and 1 at the first bar.
As work around I need to manually hide the number in the score and parts.
Using Windows 11 (the info below shows Windows 10 and is coming from the About musescore info)

OS: Windows 10 Version 2009, Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore version (64-bit): 4.0.2-230651553, revision: dbe7c6d

Score needed, but I guess you didn't tick the box "Exclude from measure count" in the properties of that pickup measures, but instead started the measure count at -1
If so this is an EBKAC...

I ticked the exclude from message count and then the number 0 just jumped to the right of the measure....
I also had to adjust "Add to measure number" which was set to -1. When I changed this to 0, it was ok.
Probably this was all because the original score was imported from Sibelius Music xml...

Apparently the MusicXML file does not correctly mark that 1st measure as a pickup measure, by using the measure's implicit property, but (instead?) by setting the measure number to 0.
To accomplish that MuseScore correctly sets the measure number offset to -1 and does not mark the measure as irregular (AKA "Exclude from measure count").
