Not sure if it's related, but really, pretty much no changes made other than via the specific control you are are using will reflect in the Inspector. There's a line at the top of Inspector::update() that returns immediately if _inspectorEdit is true, thus preventing changes initiated by other inspector control from updating the view. This would be the place to catch them globally, but I suspect bad things would happen if this line were removed.
As for catching these cases one at a time, the one I know of I'd love to see fixed is that changing offset for autopalced elements can potentially affect min distance, and it would be nice if that updated directly.

There is already a fix suggested by @mattmcclinch, see here. The real problem is that the connection is successful but it isn't remembered, so I don't know whether that line in
update()is related, it's not convenient for me to check the source code now.Offset affecting min distance sounds like a totally different issue though.
Well, it's similar in that there is a discrepancy betwene what happens while editing in the Inspector and what happens if you click off the element and back on, because the Inspector doesn't fully update while editing in the Inspector. The is potentially true whether we are talking about disabling settings or changing them.

Tried the
update()thing you mentioned, won't work. Seems like @mattmcclinch's fix is the only way to do it.See https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/5447.

_fix #296415: settings in the inspector that are supposed to be greyed out don't appear as such upon the next click on the element
Resolves: https://musescore.org/node/296415.
The inspector is not updated properly upon the next click, which can be solved by adding a few lines in
setElement()stating that those which are supposed to be greyed out (or invisible) have theirenabled(orvisible) set tofalse.Co-Authored-By: mattmcclinch _
