Description
Issue type
UX/Interaction and Regression
Task
Changing the marker above the string (i.e. X, O, or nothing) should not clear any markings in the diagram itself.
Description with steps to reproduce
- open the attached video
- note that in the "fretboard editor" clicking the O MuseScore clears all fret marks on the string, as if Multiple Dots is unchecked
- the fret marks should have been retained ... but of course, you can simply reenter them as a workaround
- interestingly, as shown in the video, it's possible to clear the X without losing other marks on the same string
