Bug Report – UI Display Glitch and MIDI Input Crash in Dorico

Dear Dorico Development Team,

Hello! I’d like to report two issues I encountered while using the latest version of Dorico:

  • Description: When I open Layout Options using Command + Shift + L, and navigate to the section for setting the vertical position of time signatures, I noticed that the text in that panel is overlapping and unreadable.
  • Details :
    • The display issue persists even after changing the interface language (e.g., switching between Chinese and English).
    • The settings themselves still work—this appears to be purely a UI/visual glitch.
  • Steps to Reproduce :
    1. Open any Dorico project;
    2. Open Layout Options via Command + Shift + L;
    3. Navigate to the Time Signature vertical position settings;
    4. Observe overlapping text in that section.

:lady_beetle:Issue 2: Crash When Using MIDI Keyboard Input in Piano Roll View (Galley View)

  • Description: While inputting notes via a MIDI keyboard in the Piano Roll (Galley View) , Dorico occasionally crashes with a EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV) error.
  • Details :
    • The crash occurs sporadically, not every time;
    • It happens across multiple projects, so it does not seem to be project-specific;
    • I have never encountered this issue in previous versions (3, 3.5, or 4).

Please find attached the crash log for Bug 2 (the issue involving MIDI keyboard input in Galley View:

Thanks for your report, Yuchen. Both of these issues are already on our radar, and will be fixed in the first maintenance release for Dorico 6. I’m sorry for the inconvenience caused in the meantime.

Sorry, the same crash issue occurred again, this time triggered while playing in Gallery View mode.

Thank you very much for your attention to this issue. If you need any further information or specific feedback, please feel free to contact me.

The crash in galley view will occur frequently if you have a project that includes divisi, I believe, so you might want to avoid using galley view for such projects for the time being.
