New to MuseScore - 2 Questions

• Jan 19, 2025 - 16:51
  1. I am unable to instantiate playback on the "Publish" view with the spacebar. The spacebar works on the "Score" view. Am I able to configure the spacebar to instantiate playback on the Publish view?

  2. Am I able to customize the layout of measures on an instrument part, but only for certain sections? I know how to set the measures per system setting for the entire chart, but I may want to adjust sections here and there. Is this possible?

Q1. Looks like you found a bug there (or is it an undocumented feature?). I confirm that I can't start playback with the space bar either.

For Q2 take a look at this section of the handbook which explains how layout can be adjusted.

Indeed, if you are new to Musescore, I suggest you take a quick speed-read through the whole handbook. That will give you an idea of Musescore's capabilities in the future you may remember that you saw something in the handbook about a particular feature that you want to use.

[Edit] Space bar/Publish tab problem already noted (along with other Publish tab problems) here https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/issues/16709
