How to use plugins
Hi,
i wonder how to use the plugins. Sure - i read the handbook. Perhaps don't understand it (my native language is german). But when i click on a plugin in the manager (for example notenames) and check it, click "OK", nothing happens ...
I'm on 2.0, Linux Kubuntu 14.10
Thank you for hints

I try with an image: 4 steps
The selection in the "Plugin Manager" makes them available when you open again "Plugins"

Thank you for your picture, Shoichi, but at step 4 there is nothing visible here :-(

Which should mean that MuseScore didn't load that plugin.
You could try to use the Plugin Creator, load that plugin there, possibly even run it from there, but more importantly get some hopefully meaningful error messages

Yes, thank you. There it is a error message. What i have to do now? Kubuntu 14.10

Oh, I'd quess you'd need to report that to whoever packaged MuseScore 2.0 for your platform, there is a vital part of Qt missing.
Maybe you could install (that part of) Qt yourself

Hello first thank you for your batch-convert package,

I realized I have problem with this plugin, as nothing happened as I active it in Plugin Manager, so I use Plugin Creator and run the "batch_covert.qml" file there, it gave me the error:
creating component failed
line 374: Invalid alias reference. Unable to find id "outMusicXml"
Could you please tell me how to fix it?
Thank you so much!

Hmm, that is a recent extension, which most probably only works with the upcoming MuseScore 2.2, but I'd need to look closer into it.
Excellent thinking of running it in the plugin creator!
Try to just delete or comment that line

I can't reproduce, the plugin works in MuseScore 2.1 as well as in the latest 2.2 development build.
Also that line you are referencing (374) is a different line number here (392), indicating you're not using the latest version or are tampering with it, as the previous version didn't have that musicxml option at all (which is new for 2.2), I have to assume the latter
Ah, now I see, you're using the Mac version (there the line number matches). Are you on a Mac? Unfortunately I can't test there, but I think I see the mistake I made there. Also I apparently forgot to publish the corresponding change to the master branch...
Please try again now, after a fresh download.

Hi thanks for the prompt reply! Yes you are right I'm using Mac!
And I realized the latest version is 2.1 but not 2.2.
It says that the 2.2 version gonna be released.
So what could I do now?
Thank you so much!

The plugin works for both

At your step 2 there are no comments in the box to the right (see Attachment)
In reply to At your step 2 there are no by Pentatonus
Hmmm, but there should be some, "This plugin names notes" and a "2.0" in the version field.
You could try to use the one from https://musescore.org/en/project/notenames
Finally, i managed to get the plugins running.
sudo apt-get download qml-module-qtquick-controls
apt-get install qml-module-qtquick-controls
Thank you for all help!

Thank you for the feedback! Did you install MuseScore from the stable PPA ?
If yes, a dependency is missing there and we need to report it.

Hello, I run musescore on Linux Mint 17.1 (based on Ubuntu 14.04 I think) and I used the mscore-stable PPA to install it. I had the same problem which I could resolve by adding the ppa:ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa repository and installing the qml-module-qtquick2 package (sudo apt-get-install qml-module-qtquick2).
I would also say that there is a missing dependency here. Hopefully it can be sorted out soon and thank you for a great program. Especially the easy way to add your own plugins is a blessing to me.
Cheers
Hello,
I had the same problem: I use UbuntuStudio 14.04 Trusty Tahr, and following the instructions for Ubuntu backports I've added the PPA http://ppa.launchpad.net/mscore-ubuntu/mscore-stable/ubuntu in order to install MuseScore 2.0.
As well described by Pentatonus, it was impossible to manage the plugins.
I've installed the qml-module-qtquick2 package (using UbuntuStudio 14.04 Trusty Tahr you don't need to add another PPA) and now the problem is fixed.
Thanks to Pentatonus and kowsoleea.

Can you please report the missing dependency on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/musescore ? Don't forget to mention that you are using the 2.0 release from the PPA.
Report on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/musescore concerning missing dependency done.
