Description

Describe the bug
Inconsistency between view mode and view button state when switching between Score and Publish spaces in specific cases.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a new score
  2. On the "Score" space, select horizontal continuous view
  3. Switch to the "Publish" space
  4. Select vertical continuous view
  5. Go back to the "Score" space
  6. Result: score shows in vertical continuous view, although the View button shows horizontal continuous view.

Expected behavior

  1. View mode button state must always correspond to the actual view mode.
  2. Maybe view state should be independent for Score and Publish views?

Platform information

  • OS: Windows x64.
    Tested on latest nightly build as of May 29 2022.

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Reproduce on Windows x64 using the Score and Publish space steps, then trace the view-mode and View button state during the switch. Done means the displayed mode and button state stay consistent, with the intended handling of state between Score and Publish clarified.
