Description
Issue type
Bug, inconsistency, feature request, question... in that order ;-)
Description with steps to reproduce
It apparently is possible to apply a system break to a measure having a system lock already.
But:
- only via drag'n'drop, not via shortcut or simple/single click, pretty inconsistent
- this does not work for section breaks or page breaks, which seem to imply/include a system break, there's no way to combine a page- or section break with a system break
These 2 make it look like a bug to me
Supporting files, videos and screenshots
n/a
In which versions of MuseScore Studio is this issue present?
4.5.2 - 4.6.2, but also the current 4.6.3 and master
Regression
Questionable whether a new feature (system locks, as of 4.5) not working properly or inconsistently is a regression or nor
Operating system
Windows 11, but that hardly matters
Additional context
While at it: it might be good to add a default shortcut for section breaks, I'd suggest Ctrl+Alt+Return (and Ctrl+Alt+Enter)
