Problems Selecting Parts in Export Dialog in Large Scores

• Feb 10, 2024 - 02:36

Hi everyone, I have a problem locating the checkboxes to select certain parts in large scores in the export dialog. It's mainly an issue with scores with lots of different parts. For example, if I open a large orchestral score in MuseScore and want to just extract the first violin part, I can't actually find violin 1 or whatever it's called in the export dialog box because when I move through the list of parts/instruments in the dialog, I'll get to, say, trombone or percussion and then it jumps right back to the first option, which is "main score". I use the NVDA screen reader, by the way. Is anyone else having this issue?

I can confirm; it seems the navigation cycles back to the top of the list after the first 20 parts, but only if the list is not also scrolled with the mouse. Normally for me only the first 10 or so instruments are visible at since, so as soon as you navigate past there with the keyboard, you can't see what is happening. If you then scroll the list so you can see what's happening while navigating, you navigate all the way to the bottom of the list. But if you don't scroll the list, then it cycles back to the top after 20 presses of the Down key. So a sighted user wanting to reproduce this will want to just count keypresses or enable their screen reader but not touch the mouse to check on the progress of the navigation.
