Alternate Chords overlapping in MuseScore 4.5

• Mar 26, 2025 - 07:38

I recently updated to MuseScore 4.5 from MuseScore 4.x.
After upgrading, if I open my pre-existing chord chart that contains alternate chord symbols, the second/alternate chord symbol overlaps the main chord symbol. I have to manually adjust the to match the offset to match the previous behavior.

Before upgrading, the alternate chord would show up above instead.

This also happens if I try to add new alternate chord symbols to a new score - if I press Ctrl-K and start typing, it will overlap the existing chord instead of adding a chord above.

Is this new behavior by design?
