Musescore 2.0.2 not importing files created in 2.0 beta 2 correctly.
Hello,
I have a file I created a week ago with Musescore 2.0 beta 2 that shows errors when trying to open in 2.0.2.
Also.. measures 1 through 5 appeared on the same line in 2.0 beta 2 but 2.0.2 will not allow me to decrease the stretch enough to put them all on the same line.
I have attached the file for you to review. I appreciate any help you can offer that will allow me to open that score and format it to print correctly from the new version.
Thanks,
Bo Graham

There is one correct measure, which you will see if you press the "Show Details" button. The beta release had a number of bugs that could cause corruptions, hopefully most of these bugs are fixed now, but you'll still have to correct the corruptions yourself as described in https://musescore.org/en/node/54721. If you require further assigance, please ask for help using Help / Ask for Help from within MuseScore, or directly via the Support forum on this site.
While I was able to fix the problem using the information at (https://musescore.org/en/node/54721), I had to discover a missing step.
I was not able to select the faulty measure to delete it. Every time I tried to select the bad measure Musescore 2.0.2 would crash. Through trial and error I discovered that I was able to select the measure immediately following the defective measure and use +'<' to also select the defective measure that preceded the good measure I had to select. I was then able to delete both measures and then build them back in from scratch. Perhaps the 54721 web site should have a step 6 added that reads something like as follows:
6. If MuseScore crashes while trying to select the bad measure try selecting the measure immediately before or after the defective measure and then use +'<' or +'>' as appropriate to expand the selection to include the defective measure. Once the measures are selected you can use +
to delete both measures and then follow the procedure to insert two measures and then input the notation information to correctly recreate the two measures deleted.I also put a note about this in with my $25 paypal donation to MuseScore a few minutes ago. This is a great piece of software and allows me to do a lot of things that I would be unable to afford to do otherwise. Thanks for all the great work!!!
