too many bugs in musicxml

• Jan 26, 2025 - 15:15

hi guys,

Nice features BUTTTT the amount of bugs becomes a real problem. I can't even export to an older version as it's not a valid musicxml format... I tried to fix the xml but it takes too long... too many errors...
direction system=only-top attribute is just one example out of my head... but guys I'm now stuck. It becomes a very serious problem as sometimes I can't even save the changes as a muscore file... so I have to try to track the issue from the last save... :-(
PLEASE invest in musicxml compatibility!!!!!

thx a lot,

Musicxml has never been perfect from any software. It isn't clear just what you are using xml format for. There are three formats to use in export. Please provide a bit more information.

thx for the prompt reply. i use it to export to another notation app/analysis tools.
i tried all the three format and got the same issue.
I guess that you do have some devop tests for this scenario.
Try to use a score with some drums and some time signature changes.
It's critical as users must have the confidence that they are not prisoners of a specific app :-)
