Same result in 2.0.3 (and previous versions) and current master.
1) Load this file created with GP6 (and no matter - same result- if GP options are enabled or not: "List of diagrams at the beginning of the score", and "Diagrams in the score") : 1 Steel Guitar.gpx
Unexpected result: fretboard diagrams are displayed but not the chords symbols.
A curiosity in addition: the fretboards are not displayed in the two first measures in main score. They are in part (but not all with current master)
Expected result: as in the GP5 format: diagrams and corresponding chords symbols are shown: 1 Steel Guitar.gp5
Comments
Oops... I observe that I myself had already filled a similar report. But I have an excuse ... :) It goes back more than a year!
I mark it as a duplicate: #114291: [GP6] Chord names are not imported
Could someone create a score with 2 instruments and one chordname+ fretboard on each staff in GP6 format? and check if it works with the new fix. Thanks!
Fixed in branch 2.2, commit 4e45d0f1cf
fix #232851: [GP6] Guitar scores: fretboard diagrams are imported but not the corresponding chord symbols
2 instruments? Ie, 2 sorts of guitars, or guitar and piano (or other)?
Anyway, the server for nightly (windows) is down. No new nightly here since 042d5b4
Oops, sorry, marked as fixed while I wrote .
I restarted the server. I was not aware.
2 guitars, even the same kind of guitars is fine but diagram+chord on top of the first and on top of the second one.
Fix for master coming.
Fixed in branch master, commit 805214ce51
fix #232851: [GP6] Guitar scores: fretboard diagrams are imported but not the corresponding chord symbols
With this test file: 1 Steel Guitar.gpx and the last 2.2 4e45d0f , works fine. Thanks.
But not in master with the current 3.0 dev. 805214c
Ie: fretboard diagrams are imported, but not the chord symbols.
EDIT: I guess due to #233661: Chord symbols are lost after saving
"a score with 2 instruments and one chordname+ fretboard on each staff in GP6 format?"
So, the .gpx file test file: 2guitars.gpx
Result, with 2.2 : 4e45d0f
Fretboard + chordname in top staff.
In second staff, chordname. Fretboard diagram plays hide-and-seek...
EDIT: I just woke up ... so the two fretboards diagrams are there, but they are superimposed on the top staff ... Too obvious and too common and too seen in other former issues in the past time, probably!

Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.
I'm reopening this issue. Clearly, the fix had not been verified sufficiently.
New test file created from scratch and with GP6 (.gpx format): test chords symbols GPX.gpx
Result: chord diagrams are imported, but not chord symbols
The workaround (and therefore the expected result) is, from GP6, to export to GP5 (.gp5 format). In this case, then, chord diagrams and chord symbols are imported: test chords symbols GP5.gp5
EDIT: came up again in #293364: Chord symbols not imported from .gpx files when fretboards are present
Unfortunately in that way I get hte chords symbols but I don't get the lyrics:
any workaround?
Thanks.
For checking, can you attach this current score?
