selection of notes and stems
There is a bug. When selecting notes to change stem directions, either up or down or auto, and select the stem button on inspector the selection of notes disappear except the first note of selection which can change. Use to be able to select several notes and measures to fix auto stems in correct direction. The notes shouldn't un-select when pressing the stem button in inspector. Doesn't matter what file one uses.

Probably a bug indeed, but none specific to MuseScroe 3(.4.1) same behavoir in MuseScore 2(.3.2)

I found a work around. Select notes (measures). Choose inspector and select notes and under chords stems choose direction of stems. It works for up, down, and auto.

If I understand correctly, it's not a bug at all. The whole point of the Stem button is to select the stem instead of the note, so you can get the stem-specific settings. If notes stayed selected, youl would get only the generic "mixed selection" Inspector, which isn't very useful (although we're working on ideas to improve that).
To change stems direction, though, you don't need to do that at all. Just press "X", or change the "Stem direction" property of the Chord. That's not a workaround, it's how you do it.

The biggest problem is when you have clarinet parts and copy and paste to a flute staff. One gets a confused (mismash) of stem directions. If you have like 40 or 50 or more bars. That is a lot of "x" to do.

? Stem directions should be determined automatically, and when you copy them they are recalculated again. unless the stems are for some reason locked into place, but typing can easily reset them all to auto by selecting the entire range and pressing Ctrl+R. Or to be safer, pressing Notes to limit selection to just the notes, then pressing the reset button next to the Stem direction setting.

Ctrl+R did the trick. Thanks.
