Description

Your idea

Sheet music apps on Android/IOS (like MobileSheets) allow users to create tapable links to jump to the begining of a repeat, or to link instructions like D.S. al Coda to the seegno. It would be practical if MuseScore would support the creation of those links itself.

@TheJonny and i are looking into implementation approaches and are open for suggestions.
