Description

Issue type

UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)

Description with steps to reproduce
  1. Start a new score
  2. Enter a note
  3. Add an l.v.
  4. Select the measure and run "Regroup rhythms"

Actual behaviour: The tie is removed.

Expected behaviour: The tie is not affected.

In the steps above, there isn't actually any rhythm to regroup, but the same happens in that case.

Run the listed reproduction steps in MuseScore Studio and confirm that Regroup rhythms removes the l.v. tie. Trace the implementation of the Regroup rhythms command and its handling of ties; done means the tie remains unaffected, including when there is no rhythm to regroup.
