I just encountered the JSON storage implementation for page settings:
QJsonObject jsonPageformat;
It's part of 3 new functions at the bottom of mscore/file.spp -
saveMetadataJSON() (plus an overloaded version) and exportAllMediaFiles().
Is there a plan to move page settings out of XML and into JSON? Or is
this simply a separate storage mechanism for page settings and a few
select styles?
I hate to name names, but I think I've seen @lasconic as being the
author of these function - are you available to comment, sir?
Can you explain the context and purpose of these JSON settings? I see
no mention of JSON in the forum post/discussion about the 3.0 beta release.
Thanks!

FYI - I have found one circumstance outside of pagesettings.cpp in
which the page settings are definitely handled distinctly from the
styles: the class Score constructors. Parts inherit all styles from
their master score, except page settings, which are inherited from the
default MuseScore settings (A4, 10/20mm margins). See this block of
code:
https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/blob/584e193e7d26182bf103074ad4efa7829921a515/libmscore/score.cpp#L275

an internal, code-based perspective.
They are in separate dialog boxes for the user. They are stored
together at run time in the styles (Sid::whatever). They are stored
in the same section of the XML, as far as I can tell. They seem to be
treated differently in the code in several places, but I don't have a
complete catalog of that, and I might even be mistaken about that.
Are they all styles that just happen to be separated in the user
interface? Or are there further internal differences in how they are
stored and used in the code?
