Can't add a dot to multiple minims with a passage selection
Posted by Alec - 10 May 06:28AM
What the subject says. If I have multiple minim selected with a passage selection, I cannot add a dot with the keypad. If I just filter out the NoteRests, there is no issue adding a dot to both. Is this a bug?

If it is a passage selection, the keypad dot will also try to lengthen the rests inbetween the notes as well.

The “passage” selection only includes a minim, and is 2 beats long. It is vertically covering multiple staves, but contains no other note or rest.

That works fine for me: all the minims become dotted. Please show us some evidence of your problem.

My thought would be to check that you haven't caught any hidden staves in your passage selection.

This is a brand new score I just created. I'm fairly certain this used to work? Please see attached dropbox link for video.

To clarify, doing exactly this with a note, not a rest, works exactly how you would expect. Even with a passage selection a dot can be applied. With a rest however, this does not work.

Interesting. This is only happening with rests, not notes. Might be a bug.
