How to do Indent on First Measure?

• Jul 1, 2024 - 05:44

I guess I forgot how this is done.

An old score I worked on has an indent on the first measure, so there's space for instrument names.

But when I hide the standard staffs, the TABs lose the intents and it all looks squashed.

How do I maintain this indent for TABs?

Thanks in advance.

I'll be happy to share it. Where do I upload it?

Here on the forum. See: https://musescore.org/en/node/289899
But it's confirmed, so the most important right now is to fill an issue on Github, as written above.

Ok. With workaround (horizontal frame and instrument names added within the frame), see: 1Greensleves (guitar).mscz

Thank you for your help. It's a good workaround and I'll definitely use it also for some other sores I am working on.

Thanks a bunch.

OK, I finally registered an account at GitHub and submitted the issue. Fingers crossed.

In the meantime, I'd like to be able to use your workaround on other scores.

I can't figure out how you managed to insert text inside the horizontal frame?

Thanks a bunch.

"I can't figure out how you managed to insert text inside the horizontal frame?"
Right-click the horizontal frame / "Add text"

I confirm, from scratch. Indeed, it's a bit unexpected. As workaround: select the first measure and insert a horizontal frame. To fill an issue, it's here: https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues
