Project
Here's how to reproduce the issue:
1) Create a project with a Grand Staff a 4/4 time signature
2) In the bass, add only staccato semiquavers, one after another with no breaks between.
3) Put a tempo text (the one called "Swing" in the text tab) at the beginning, and write in "Allegro"
4) Play and see how the left hand is ducked
The workaround is to simply delete the text, but I need it!
Comments
Misuse of Swing.
Use Tempo-Text. (Palettes => Tempo)
Rather by design.
Workaround is to either not missuse a swing text but use a tempo text, or to switch swing off in that system text's properties
