Package: tuxguitar
Version: 1.2-5
Severity: normal

Sorry if this should have gone directly upstream, I didn't find out how to
properly submit upstream bug reports on tuxguitar.

Anyway, there is a piece of Brahms' Violin Concerto that I'm unable to notate
properly, and I will try to give you an attachment with an example tuxguitar
file.

In words:

The music is in 3/4 time signature. The bar I'm having problems is goes as
follows:

The first quarter consists of six 16th notes. All these notes have the number
"6" under them, since they are played in the duration of one quarter note. This
is correct.

The second quarter of the bar is the same as the first. So far so good.

But: the last quarter of the bar consists of only 5 16th notes, i.e. five of them
played for the duration of one quarter note. These should all have the number
"5" underneath, but the last one of them has the number "3" instead.... I'm
unable to change it to a 5, because nothing happens when I select that note
and choose 5 from the dropdown menu on the toolbar.

I have attached a *.tg file containing only this bar to show the problem.

Thanks,
Torquil

Hi Torquil,

Thank you for the bug report. I'm tagging it and other functional
issues as "upstream" to help separate Debian packaging bugs from
functionality bugs/feature requests.

If I can find out the information about getting information to the
upstream, I'll post it here.

Thank you,
tony
