Improved the functionality of the playhead (a.k.a. the playback cursor) so that whenever the user selects an element, the playhead is automatically repositioned to the element's time position. Previously, this worked only for noteheads and rests, but it now works for note stems, beams, augmentation dots, accidentals, ties, slurs, articulations, time signatures, key signatures, clefs, tempo changes, dynamics, lines, barlines, breaks, spacers, measure numbers, text, and so on. Special cases handled: * Barlines. The playhead is moved to the start of the measure to the right of the barline, unless it's the last barline in either the entire score or the system, in which case the playhead is moved to the start of the measure to the left of the barline. * Brackets always have a time position of zero, so the playhead is moved to the start of the first measure in the system that the bracket belongs to. * Instrument names always have a time position of zero, so the playhead is moved to the start of the first measure in the system that the instrument name belongs to. |

Building
Read the developer handbook for a complete build walkthrough and a list of dependencies.
Getting sources
If using git to download repo of entire code history, type:
git clone https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore.git
cd MuseScore
Otherwise, you can just download the latest source release tarball from the Releases page, and then from your download directory type:
tar xzf MuseScore-x.x.x.tar.gz
cd MuseScore-x.x.x
Release Build
To compile MuseScore, type:
make release
If something goes wrong, then remove the whole build subdirectory with make clean and start new with make release.
Running
To start MuseScore, type:
./build.release/mscore/mscore
The Start Center window will appear on every invocation until you disable that setting via the "Preferences" dialog.
Installing
To install to default prefix using root user, type:
sudo make install
Debug Build
A debug version can be built by doing make debug instead of make release.
To run the debug version, type:
./build.debug/mscore/mscore
Testing
See mtest/README.md or the developer handbook for instructions on how to run the test suite.
The new script testing facility is also available to create your own automated tests. Please try it out!
