Bartłomiej, For what its worth, Sibelius does what MuseScore currently does (selects only the notes that are visibly highlighted). Finale selects the all the notes playing at that instant. So if you range select the last eighth it gives you an eighth from voice one and an eighth from voice 2.
I'm used to the Finale behavior from years of use, but I suppose both behaviors are logical. By the way I really appreciate your work on the selection code. Visually highlighting the elements that are actually selected really improves the experience of using MuseScore. On a side note, I follow your blog via rss feed http://bartlomiejlewandowski.github.io/rss.xml However, I noticed that the links on the article headers are broken. For example your latest post links to: http://username.github.io/gsoc2014/2014/05/25/highlighting-and-range-selection instead of: http://bartlomiejlewandowski.github.io/gsoc2014/2014/05/25/highlighting-and-range-selection/ David On 5/26/2014 6:57 AM, Bartlomiej Lewandowski wrote: > Hello all, > > I have been looking into the behavior of MuseScore when doing range > selections. > I am not sure if the following is expected: > > In the startup Promenade score we have a few measures that contain a > quarter note in one voice, and two eighth notes in the second. > > Range selecting the quarter note creates a selection that includes all 3 > notes.
