Hairpins Won't Snap to Dynamics (as of 4.4.1)

• Sep 23, 2024 - 00:26

Hairpins and dynamic change lines have completely broken for me.

The cresc./dim. lines and hairpins both no longer snap to any dynamic, they don't follow the dynamics during playback (even after I fiddle them into a reasonable spot), they only align to each other - It's so frustrating that it's almost unusable from a playback standpoint and completely broken from an engraving perspective. Infinitely more work for me to get the dynamics and hairpins to look proper so work has pretty much ground to a halt. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Photos with descriptions in the title attached.

Please help :,)

Try this, instead. Enter the dynamics first. Then apply the hairpins to the notes in between the dynamics. You shouldn't have to fiddle with hardly anything.

Appreciate the help, but that doesn't work. In the first two photos you'll see that's exactly what I've done - Still not snapping.

That said, for the last year they have snapped regardless of what order they're placed in. I know sometimes that might be the band-aid, but this is likely a little deeper in the code :/

Apply hairpins from the palette instead.

The process by which I put a hairpin in my score isn't the issue - the underlying code for the hairpin object is.

Maybe. But I've always added hair pins from the palette and never had a problem. So maybe there has been a change for the way you do it.
