I can't quite see the point of this - by "beaming" the durations, you lose the flags which tell you what the durations actually are. |

@miiizen You're right — the result in the video loses the duration information, so it isn't a useful result as shown. I based this on #2235, which uses beam modes to switch historical TAB duration symbols to a grid. The current guard rejects those edits for half and quarter notes because they have no modern hooks, even though the grid uses font-dependent beam levels. This patch removes that restriction, but leaves the grid rendering unchanged. The tests check the mode changes and undo/redo; they don't establish that the resulting notation is correct. Before taking this further, could you clarify the intended behavior for the Italian TAB example? Should half and quarter notes be supported in a properly rendered duration grid, with the connecting lines conveying their values, or should these notes retain their individual duration symbols? If the grid is intended, I'll include the rendering fix and a visual regression test rather than leave this as an edit-only change. |
The beam-mode edit alone replaced duration signs with bare stems because connection lengths were no longer calculated after horizontal spacing. Restore that late layout step and include duration symbols in chord shapes. Connect equal undotted values within a measure and tuplet using the font's beam levels. Preserve duration signs for isolated, unequal, dotted and zero-level cases. Keep group ends, rests and measure boundaries intact. Replace the mixed half/quarter example with a visual regression score for two quarters and four eighths in separate groups. Cover real EditBeam transactions, undo/redo/reset, save/reopen, group boundaries and scaled French-font layout; retain ordinary chord and subdivision restrictions. All 21 enabled Engraving_BeamTests pass with ASan; the same tests fail in four historical TAB cases on the previous edit-only revision. Native app builds and GUI editing, undo/redo and save/reopen were checked. Upstream Uncrustify checks pass. Refs musescore#34839

Use equal quarter and eighth groups to demonstrate readable duration grids for MuseScore issue musescore#34839 and PR musescore#34840. Include the recording input, native saved result and owning visual regression score; supersede the mixed-duration example.

@miiizen I checked the original grid implementation and the 2019 report behind #5304. That example uses two quarters in one group and four eighths in another. The connecting lines carry the duration information: two and three respectively with the Italian font. You were right about the result I posted. My patch allowed the edits but left the connector layout broken, and the mixed half/quarter example was a poor test. I've replaced it and included the missing layout step in 1cd62b3. Isolated or unequal values and dotted notes keep their individual signs; this patch doesn't attempt the extra notation needed for mixed-duration grids. The updated videos show the same edits before and after, including undo/redo. The native tests now check the connectors and retained duration signs as well as the edit state; all 21 Beam tests pass, including save/reopen and font/scaling checks. Could you take another look at the new example? |
The standalone CI build cannot resolve Navigation in tlayout.cpp. Local unity compilation masked the missing direct include. Include the owning header so both build modes compile. Validated tlayout.cpp, systemlayout.cpp and chordlayout.cpp as standalone translation units, rebuilt engraving_tests, and passed all 21 enabled Beam tests. Upstream Uncrustify passes. Refs musescore#34839.

Split this into historical-tab-grid-boundaries.mscz for the Italian cases and historical-tab-grid-french-small.mscz for the French font at 70% staff magnification. The unequal-duration case is also in the boundary score; the corresponding C++ layout assertions are removed.

Moved the connector layout coverage to historical-tab-grids.mscz, reduced to the quarter/eighth groups. The native test now focuses on editing and undo/redo with its own two-note fixture.

Could you separate this out into some booleans please

Split the predicate into named booleans for the chord eligibility, context, durations and beam modes, keeping the null/type guard first. Draw-data comparisons for all three visual scores are unchanged from the previous complete fix.
Separate duration-grid connection predicates for review and preserve the existing rendering behavior. Keep edit/undo coverage in Beam tests with a two-note fixture, and move appearance, boundary and French-font scaling coverage into three vtest scores. Reuse the suite's transaction label. All 18 enabled Beam tests pass. Restoring the original hook guard makes the same edit regression fail, with 17 passes. All three visual scores have identical draw data and PNG pixels before/after the predicate refactor; the earlier edit-only implementation produces different draw data. Standalone layout compilation and official formatting checks pass. Refs: musescore#34839
The remaining Beam tests do not use Staff APIs. The test translation unit compiles independently without this include, and all 18 enabled Beam tests pass. Refs: musescore#34839

Resolves: #34839
Historical TAB duration grids have two problems: the modern-hook guard rejects edits to half and quarter notes, and the grid layout no longer computes horizontal connection lengths. Allowing the edits alone leaves bare stems and loses the duration information.
This revision fixes both. With Italian duration symbols, two quarter notes form a two-line grid and four eighth notes form a separate three-line grid. The earlier mixed half/quarter example and bare-stem “after” video were not valid expected results; the new score and recordings below replace them.
Changes
Before and after
Both recordings use the same input, actions and 300% zoom. Apply Break beam left to notes 1 and 3, then Join beams to note 2 and notes 4–6; undo and redo the last operation.
Before: the previous edit-only PR revision. Edits are accepted, but the symbols become bare stems.

After: the complete revision. Quarter and eighth groups retain distinct two-line and three-line grids.

#2235 introduced duration-grid selection through beam modes. The 2019 report gives the equal-quarter/equal-eighth example used here; #5304 restored the late connection-length calculation in the older layout architecture. This revision restores that step in the current system layout, rather than copying the obsolete layout call.
Craig-McFeely’s lute-tablature glossary, printed xxiii–xxiv, describes mensura germanica as usually grouping equal values within bars and illustrates historical duration mappings. That supports the replacement example, not a universal prohibition on more elaborate grids.
#22013 introduced hook restrictions for inner-beam problems (#21809, #21991), and #30467 later allowed long rests. Those subdivision and ordinary-notation restrictions remain.
