Bracket not Snapping to some Staves Correctly

• Jan 2, 2020 - 23:27

Hi all,

I am trying to add a bracket to 2 of the voice parts in my score (out of a total of 3 voice parts and a piano part). It worked fine initially, but when I changed the parts around a little, the bracket wouldn't snap to the lower staff.

Is this a bug, or is there something that I am not aware of in MuseScore that is causing this?

Thank you for the help,
Tony

Brackets aren't something one applies to specific measures, they apply to the staves themselves, and are repeated on each system for the entire score. For example, the curly braces in front of the piano staves on each system of your piece are one form of bracket. So I suspect you mean something other than what "bracket" normally means, but it isn't clear what. Can you explain what the symbol you are wanting looks like and what it is supposed to mean? Then we can tell you the term used for that in MuseScore and how to add it.

EDIT: hmm, I see your picture does show actual brackets, but I'm still confused, because the measures you are talking about don't start a new system. In any case, brackets still don;'t apply to individual measures, you would want to add them at the beginning of the score.
