Full manual control of adjustments to existing score
I'm new and haven't been able to find the answer to a really basic question, I assume it's really simple.
When adjusting durations/notes for a voice in a measure of an existing score, I also get unwanted automatic adjustments to that voice, potentially other voices in that measure and potentially the next measure, too.
How do I configure Musescore to get full manual control, i.e. shut off the automatic adjustments that currently get triggered when I make a manual change in an existing score? Thanks.
v 3.6.2.5x, Windows 10

In Edit -> Preferences you have to assign your own shortcut to: Toggle 'Automatic Placement' globally

"I also get unwanted automatic adjustments to that voice, potentially other voices in that measure and potentially the next measure, too."
When you are entering notes in a voice other than Voice 1, MuseScore will "helpfully" add a full-measure rest for that voice in the next measure - ready for your note entry there.
I don't know of any way to turn off that feature, and it's quite easy to delete the rest if you don't need it.
