Screen jump on note entry

• Mar 26, 2017 - 14:33

Hello,

I want to keep previous bars in view whist entering new notes but when I enter a new note the screen moves so that the bars are no longer in view.

Does anyone have a solution to this?

(using "continuous view" I can only keep the previous few bars in view)
[I did a screen recording in quicktime but I can't upload an MOV file.]

Many thanks,

I love Musescore but this little glitch really drives me crazy.

Thanks but working at 100% size I can only view about 3 previous bars in Continuous View.

I have attached a short gif showing what I am trying to do i.e. I would like the screen to stay as I have positioned it whilst I enter notes.

Thanks

You will need to change the zoom in continuous view to a compromise between comfortable note sizes and number of measures you want to continue to see.

Part of the jump in your video is because the cursor on the linked staves is also on the tab staff. When you enter it on the treble staff MS moves to make the fret visible.

I wrote the previous note and looked again, but it seems your staves are not linked since there are no frets on the last line visible, except the first note. I'm guessing you put the fret number there to make the line visible because you have hide empty staves checked. I don't understand why you don't have linked staves, but of course you may enter scores as you like.
