Everything goes well when directly opening a MusicXML file in Dorico, but when a MusicXML file is imported into an existing Dorico project, clicking once on any imported tempo mark crashes Dorico 3.0.10 immediately on my Mac. My current workaround is to remove all tempo marks in Sibelius, then exporting the MusicXML and then add them again in Dorico.
I emptied an xml file completely except for the first tempo mark and added this as an attachment to reproduce this.
Steps:
create a new project with 1 player
import the attached MusicXML
click (e.g. in setup mode) once on the imported tempo mark
I didn’t try that, Derrek. It may work and in that case it would be another (better) workaround indeed. Fortunately I’m done importing now, for a while. And I just wanted to submit this bug report because it’s bitten me now for 5 files in a row (I have a bad memory I suppose) and to help make Dorico even better.
I’m unable to reproduce the problem as you describe it, mth. You can’t select things in Setup mode, and clicking on the score in Setup mode won’t do anything that should cause a crash. Can you please also do Help > Create Diagnostic Report and upload the resulting zip file so I can get a look at your crash logs?
Yes, thank you for looking into it. The diagnostic report is too large to attach on this forum, here is part 1 (AudioEngine, Crashes) Dorico Diagnostics 1.zip (425 KB)
I’ve looked at the crash reports in the diagnostics and they’re all the same. I can’t tell exactly why the software is crashing but I can see a possible protection we could add that might help prevent this crash, so we’ll do that and hopefully that will resolve the problem.
