Refrains don't work after the execution of a D.S to Coda command

• Mar 17, 2016 - 15:16

Hi! I'm new to the forum and to the usage of this wonderful software...oh and i'm not english, so i apologize for the potential mistakes i'll make while writing this post.
So, after being able (with a lot of difficulty) to make the D.S to Coda command work , i've noticed an odd behavior during the play back of my score: after the execution of this command all the refrains conteined in my score are no longer executed by the software. So, is it a bug or do i have to know something i didn't know to correct this behaviour?
If you ask, i'll upload my musescore project.
Thank you. I hope someone can help me!

This is by design—it is standard to not play repeats after a D.S. If you asked a musician to play your sheet music, they would do it the same way.

You can add some text to tell the musician to take the repeats, but currently MuseScore will only play repeats the standard way.

Thank you for your quick answer! Now i know it's not a limitation of the sotware, but a general way of writing scores (i'm sorry, i'm not a professionist :) ). But unfortunately i need to export the score as an mp3 file, with all the correct repeats. Isn't there any attempt i can do to make the software execute the repeats after the D.S. to Coda, even the most complicated one?

Oh yes...i meant to avoid this extra work in order to keep the score shorter and more elegant, because i need it for both pdf and mp3 exports. So now i have to create one score with the repeats signals for the pdf export and one with the unfolded repeats for the rendering of an mp3 file. I think i'll be forced to do that. Thank you for the help. :)
