Multiple Musescore 3 bugs
Hi, not sure if this is the right place to post this. I'm having a lot of trouble with Musescore 3 right now. I don't know if these bugs have already been reported or not, but they're very common and rather debilitating so they should be fixed ASAP.
-
Sometimes when playing through a score, the player will skip ahead dozens of bars, play one note, and then stop. Sometimes it will skip to the beginning of the score, play the first note, then stop.
-
Sometimes when playing from somewhere within the score (not from the beginning), it will play one note and stop.
-
Sometimes get odd situation where the time signature or key signature appears twice on a barline like in this image:
-
Incredibly slow UI in (comparatively) big files. I'm currently working on a file that is 40KB in size and it is a pain to use the arrow keys to move notes around, or just to even drag the screen around. I understand this is probably an issue with file size as it is not as apparent in smaller files, but I did not have this problem in Musescore 2. The difference was noticeable and immediate.
Also surely 40KB is not too big for the program to handle. Should I be manually allocating more RAM to the program? It doesn't strike me as a particularly memory intensive process.
I hope these issues can be fixed. I'm surprised they were included in the official release of Musescore 3 to be honest. I would like to go back to Musescore 2 until they're fixed but, as expected, it doesn't know how to read the files anymore.
Looking forward to any form of a response,
Jamie

Everything you mentioned are known bugs that should be being worked on. I'm not MuseScore employee or programmer so I can't make any promises.
As far as using version 2, you can use the File->Export command and choose musicxml as the format for the file, save it, then open and edit it in version 2. Unless you purposely deleted version 2 it's still on your computer.

Thanks Mike, I'll be using Musescore 2 until version 3 is fixed.

FYI, I keep both version running on my computer right now. Version 2 so I can do my transcriptions and version 3 so I can help people and help improve the program. I look forward to the day I can turn of version 2 completely.
