If you insert a staff text, then you move it up and after all you save the project the text duplicate as you can see in screenshot attached. When you open the project the text is single but if you try to move up the issue returns.

It works fine for me. Windows 7.
Also it seems to be a temporary display glitch only for you, so not major at all
Hmm, I now see it too.
These ain't Staff text, but System text.
And the duplication seems to happen on autosave?
I work on a macOS. It happen on manual save and I'm sure that is a Staff text. The problem is the I can't move these text because It duplicate them so a can't print (also pdf) in correct view.
Later I'll record a video on my Mac.
It is System text (and rightfully so, it should show on all parts), as the Inspector and the Status bar clearly show when selecting it
Seems to happen only if multi measure rests are enabled (for the main score)
Sorry, it's a system text, I had a problem with translation.
Anyway, It is a problem if multi measure it's enable. A work around seems to clean all system text from the main part and the other parts (I suppose the the cloning appears there), the uncheck multi measure rests and recheck it, insert a system text and save.
These are projects created in older MuseScore version (maybe 2.0)
Another maybe related issue: changing the offests of these System texts in main score does not survive Save/Close/Open.
2.0.3 does not have the duplication issue, so we're having a regression here, but does have the issue with the offsets
Can you reproduce from scratch with 2.1?
From a new project?
From scratch, from a new project, from a new score (same thing), indeed.
From my part, I have succeeded twice, but I can not reproduce systematically by now.
With a new project doesn't happen. Maybe it's a problem with old project...dammit! Now I tried with a few notes, but doesn't happen...
No, I think there is something (as I said, I succeed twice from scratch).
Oh sorry...so, what else can I do?
Hmm, yes, invisible staves may have a play here too
With that sample score from #1 the System texts duplicate (become one more) on every save, manual or Auto, within the same session.
Unhiding all staves (and deleting the last, as that'd otherwise prevent multi measure rests) and the problem is gone. Only deleting that last staff, and the problem is gone too!
So the invisible staff that otherwise would break multi measure rests (and is the only one without a linked part) seems the culprit?
Okay, understood now. The time to collect the steps and check two-three things.
ok! Thanks.
Steps to reproduce:
1) New score for two flutes
2) Generate parts -> new all -> Ok
3) Enter a note in second staff first measure
4) In top staff: select the first whole rest -> enter a system text
5) "I" -> For the second flute: untick "Visible"-> OK
6) Press "M"
7) Drag the text (it's only to better see the duplication later)
8) Wait a few/several seconds (for Auto save I guess)
At one point, you observe the duplication of the text (image below)
9) Right-click on the initial/highlighted text -> Cut
Result: crash

Cannot reproduce on current master, seems to be fixed.
