Clicking "Apply" in the Preferences dialog restores the default user interface layout (toolbars re-instated and re-positioned, palettes collapsed, inspector width re-set).
Steps to reproduce...
- With UI at default settings, right-click Concert Pitch toolbar (for example) and uncheck it so it is no longer displayed.
- Choose Preferences from the Edit menu
- Click Apply (no need to actually change any preferences)
Result : Concert Pitch toolbar is re-instated in its default position (as are all other UI menu elements)
This always happens regardless of the Musescore application window being maximised or restored down.
