Description

Issue type

Engraving bug (incorrect score rendering)

Description with steps to reproduce

Pitch name noteheads are slightly larger than the default notehead. When one of the pitch name notehead schemes has been selected and a pitch is insupported (double sharp/double flat, etc.), the notehead is drawn using the default notehead glyph. When this happens, the white masking behind the note still takes its size from a pitch name notehead, and therefore becomes visible.
