Measure Numbers and Section Break
Measure numbers are inconsistent, when using section breaks. Here how to reproduce the problem:
Step 1: Open MeasureNumbersTest.mscz
Step 2: Notice how the first bar in line 3 is numbered with "1", which is correct as this is the first bar of a new section. The first bars of each line are numbered: 1, 9, 1, 9
Step 3: Add one note to bar 2 of the second section, the only one which is left empty.
Step 4: See how the numbering in line 3 is changed. The incorrect numbering now goes: 1, 9, 17, 9
You may now also want to add another note to the last line to also see the numbers in that line change. If you go to "Format -> Style" you can restore the correct numbering by applying a "measure numbers" style (e.g., uncheck and then check "Show first"). Only to destroy it again by going through steps 3 or 4.

alternative Step 3: delete that measure, to turn the full rest into a full measure rest
Result: measure numbers screwd up the same way
Step 5: save score
Result: measure numbers are correct again. So it is a temporary visual glitch apparently.
Another bug gets demostrated with that sample score in regards to section break: The 1st measure after the section break doesn't show a time signature. Not a regression though, same issue in 2.x

Measure numbers are also screwed up in print-outs, not only on screen.
Also in File>Export.
But not after a File>Save.
That raises severity and priority...

Still not fixed in version 3.6.2.548021803. Adding a note or double clicking on a chord symbol changes the measure number, but the Save fix works. Thank you JoJo!
In reply to Still not fixed in version 3… by elsewhere
Note: if you click or edit in the measure with the measure number it appears fixed, but in any other measure of that section the problem remains
Better open a new report with exact steps to reproduce. This one here is closed for way too long.
