Second Note in a Tie is silent when first note is deleted

I think the issue is that while MuseScore deletes only the first note element in the tie sequence, it fails to consider the second note, There is probably a property in the second not that says that while it doesn't start a sound it continues the sound occurring right before it.
I can see to possible fixes:
One, when deleting a note, MuseScore should check to see whether or not it starts a tie, and if so, delete the following note as well, else it should proceed normally.
Two, MuseScore could Check the properties of the next note, and find if that note, while having a pitch, does not start a sound and either deletes it or changes the properties to let it start the sound.

Hi,
I made a change to the MuseScore Code which would, when deleting a note with leading a tie, remove the tie, and have the second note in the tie play.
The addition I made is underlined in the following code segment the following:


void Score::deleteItem(Element* el)
{
switch(el->type()) { ....
case CHORD:
{ ...
Chord* chord = static_cast(el);
removeChordRest(chord, false);

// replace with rest if voice 0 or if in tuplet
Tuplet* tuplet = chord->tuplet();
// if ((el->voice() == 0 || tuplet) && (chord->noteType() == NOTE_NORMAL)) {
if (chord->noteType() == NOTE_NORMAL) {
Rest* rest = new Rest(this, chord->durationType());
rest->setDurationType(chord->durationType());
rest->setDuration(chord->duration());
rest->setTrack(el->track());
rest->setParent(chord->parent());
Segment* segment = chord->segment();
undoAddCR(rest, segment->measure(), segment->tick());
QList notes=chord->notes();
foreach(Note* n,notes){
Tie* tie = n->tieFor();
if(tie!=NULL)
{
Score::removeElement(tie);
}
}
// undoAddElement(rest);
if (tuplet) {
tuplet->add(rest);
rest->setTuplet(tuplet);
rest->setDurationType(chord->durationType());
}
select(rest, SELECT_SINGLE, 0);
}
else {
// remove segment if empty
Segment* seg = chord->segment();
if (seg->isEmpty())
undoRemoveElement(seg);
}
}
break;

Should I commit edit.cpp with the following changes? I've never done this before, and I want to make sure I'm doing the right thing. I would appreciate confirmation before I upload my file.

Thanks --- Andrew
