Minor bug; start/end measure number shown in help bar (bottom margin of app) off by one if pickup measure is not counted
I have a score with a pickup bar that is not counted per measure number labels. If I select a measure, the help bar at the bottom of the app shows a measure number that does not match the selected measure (off by one.) This is a very minor issue, but I thought I'd report it if no one else had (I looked in the bug reports.) The pic attached demonstrates the problem clearly, I think. All the best.

Not really a bug...
When enumerating measure numbers for score notation, pickup measures are not labelled with a number.
However, for internal identification within the MuseScore app (e.g. the status bar) pickup measures are counted, which is why it is mentioned here (at #3):
https://musescore.org/en/node/54721
It states:
"The measure number... may not necessarily match the number shown in the score, due to pickup measures, section breaks, or modifications to the measure number offset in Measure Properties."

FWIW, though, it might be useful for the status bar to mention both numbers, since they each have some relevance.
