Interesting. I can reproduce in a new score as well, but only sometimes. Certain combinations of note trigger this, others don't. Not sure what the key is right now.

Not the tie on the second note.

I took a long time to find a combination that would cause this in a new score rather than measure 200 of a score. It is rather intermittent.

Um, identical symptoms? This one doesn't also have the "result 2" after save/undo, but the slur disappears in the same way following the same trigger.

Version 2.0.3 and current 2.1 dev. f30d2ad / Windows7

1) Load this first file : 1) 16 th slur gone.mscz
2) Edit (double-click) the slur
3) Select the left handle
4) Shift + right arrow
5) Escape

Result: the slur is gone

- Second file , same steps: 2) quarter note slur gone.mscz
Result: the slur is gone

- Third file , same steps: 3) same note value slur remains.mscz
Result: the slur remains

- Last file summarizing these cases, and others, in a behavior not always coherent: test file.mscz

This happens to me quite often, always with the left end adjuster. Adjusting by any of the other handles has never made a slur disappear.

After several failed attempts on my part, I figured out how to reproduce it so I could post it here. Looks like cadiz1 was able to figure out the underlying problem and fix it.

To figure out, indeed ; to locate the behavior change, also, but for the fix, it's not me at all!
