Description
Issue type
General playback bug
Description with steps to reproduce
1. Add swing
2. Add a swing rhythm
3. Add a fermata or tempo change on the upbeat
4. Notice unexpected playback
Expected behavior: Musescore would wait until the swinged upbeat to change tempo
Actual behavior: Musescore seems to ignore the swing and change tempo on the straight upbeat
See attached video for an exaggerated example.
