I cannot reproduce. I see the score was last saved using 3.6.2, is that really the version you are using? Is there some other step omitted here?
In reply to I cannot reproduce. I see… by Marc Sabatella
I can reproduce, but only if I do the insert operation on the Klavier part. Inserting on the score or violin part works as expected.
Interesting. Indeed, insertions in violin and piano part behave differently. On a few occasions (maybe after doing additional edits / undos) I could get the slurs messed up by inserting measures in the violin part. I will update the instructions in the description.
Two of us now.
Indeed, I can reproduce using the Klavier part. Although only the ottava seems affected, slurs seems fine. Might be more steps needed to reproduce that problem.
This is one way to reproduce the slurs misplacement:
The score now shows two misplaced slurs and two misplaced ottava brackets:
FWIW: also affects hairpin cresc/dims
The issue seems to apply to all lines. Happened today with piano pedal marks:

The marks used to start on beat 1. I don't know exactly when it happened, but earlier on I inserted some time signature changes. That might explain why the lines were shifted by a single beat, not a whole measure.
